Top Ten Reasons Why Peachy Deegan Says the Lenovo U260 is the Most Fashionable Item You Can Have For Fashion Week!!!!

1. It is thinner than every model you will see strut the catwalk
2. It comes in two fashionable colors: Clementine and Chocolate, and don't eat them
3. It is smart.  You only have to tell it something once....and it remembers
4. The design of the keyboard is sharp and intuitive
5. The Lenovo brand detailing is sharp and classy...not tacky at all
6. It is light as a feather.  It definitely weighs less than other models, both computers and humans
7. It does not have that big bulky awful battery pack that goes in and out of other models
8. The screen color is phenomenal
9. It has the lovely Lenovo smile feature: It is always fashionable to smile
10. It is simply the best

Our original review:

It is less than three pounds.  It is faster than lightening.  It is better than the best box of chocolates with the best bottle of champagne with the best crabcakes.  Why?  Because Peachy Deegan spends all of her time with it.  Introducing the Lenovo IdeaPad U260!!!  If she spent as much time with chocolate, champagne and crabcakes as she does with the Lenovo IdeaPad U260, she would be humongous, which she is not.  She is using the model that is pretty close to the color of a crabcake, however.  This super model comes in Mocha Brown or Clementine Orange, which Peachy is using. 

 
Price for this system is $1049.00, but quite honestly, it is priceless.
 
It is truly amazing how light this is; that could be our most favorite aspect of it.  And of course the performance is top-notch and quicker than quick.  Since Peachy has no patience, this is the perfect Valentine for her.  Totally responsive and on the ball, the Lenovo Ideapad U260 is sleek, stylish and keeps quiet and does a fabulous job!  It has great endurance: it lasts for 4 hours on battery power!  

At 12.5 inches it is plenty big enough to allow you to see what you need to see!  We abhor tiny screens that make us squint and wonder what we see.  This is just gorgeous and the colors are tremendously vibrant and clear.  We are treating it like the canary diamond at Tiffany's, but we understand it is quite durable, and we'll take their word for that!  No durability tests here at Whom You Know, we have too much to tell you on all of our posts!  The keyboard operates just as quickly and responsively as you would want it too and it is an excellent design overall.

When they say the lap of luxury, they are not kidding.  This is we believe the 6th consecutive Lenovo we've tried- we began working with them in September 2009-and they keep getting better and better.  We could work with other brands, but choose not to because we are so impressed with Lenovo!  Whom You Know highly recommends the Lenovo Ideapad U260-you will fall in love with it too!  You won't be able to find a better computer experience-and take it from someone that spends a lot of time on the computer!!!
