What do you think about my new laptop lenovo b50-70

I must said that i was to forced to buy it because my 6 years old desktop pc i just broken, and my laptop 5 years old ASUS is failing too, but i need laptop for my university, i just bust almost all my savings to buy it :-(

And i'm not rich. I was trying to save money to buy new desktop for gaming, study, and work. But the new laptop which i use now is cool too, i paid for it 2200 PLN (Polish Zlotych) with is 589 $

lenovo is Chinese, so it would not surprise me if there was spyware installed, and Chinese companies are part owned by the government. :wink:

Apparently security agencies have banned lenovo use, because of back door vulnerabilities. Yet these agencies aren't really one to talk.

General use it would be fine. I'd install my own OS, like a linux flavour.

But i heard that NASA and ESA use it on ISS, so they must be good :-)
