    I have trouble choosing between different models of the Lenovo z570

    The first one is the Z570 102436U which I can get for 550 with tax.

    The next is the Z570 1024-3JU which I can get for 480.

    Thrid is the Z570 10243TU for 550

    And last is the Z570 1024-3VU and last is for 530 with tax.

    My biggest question is why the one on the Lenovo site original MSPR is 900 but it looks like it's specs are worse than all the others. Any input would help.

    I choose these because I have a hard budget of $560 usd and the total for tax and shipping can't go over that.

    (This is for my sister and she like the style of the Z570. I showed here a thinkpad and she made a face of disgust.)

    That one seem like a the best deal. Most of them are nearly the same, so choosing the one that is cheapest is the way to go.

    Do you know what her usage of the machine will be?

    She is a student in college. She mainly is going to be watching Netflix (this is the reason she wanted a bigger screen), word docs, playing Sims 3, some internet flash games, listening to music. She does want to run the Dragon NaturallySpeaking software.

    She's not a gamer or does anything that would push her current computer (Acer AS4520-5464) very hard.
