    I was just comparing the basic model IdeaPad Y460 with the only listed model of G460. The specifications are almost identical other than the inclusion of JBL speakers on the Y460, but there is the matter of a $100 price difference.

    Is there usually much difference in build quality between the IdeaPad and Essential lines? From the pictures the G460 almost looks like it has a nicer build quality even though it has a lower price.
