This, unless you really want the keyboard. i7 doesn't add much and the 8th gen cpu was a big leap for Intel. Ips display vs probably a TN display on the t450

I have this laptop - it's great because it has an empty 2.5" slot for a SATA SSD drive. Essentially you can have a 1.256 TB SSD 14" laptop for ~ $700

I've only used it plugged in. I will say the lcd backlight bleed issue is quite noticeable. But I bought it for the old man, who only uses it for internet browsing, word processing, and photo storage.

Seems like a pretty decent machine, and won't be using it for much more than basic office / web usage. The ports seem to future proof it a fair bit. Thanks, OP.

Just tried and the $25off$700PC will not stack with the newsletter.

For this price, this is fantastic! Thanks OP!!

There's also a $25off$700PC coupon, but not sure if it stacks with the 10% off email code.

How did you even figure that? And what use is that information when every province has different taxes.

$729 - 10% off = $656
$656 + tax = $741
$741 - 100 gift card - 10% ebates on the before tax price = $576

Taxes are calculated based on the only province that matters, Ontario
