IdeaPad vs ThinkPad: $250 Challenge

These two laptops came into the studio, and depending on where you shop, they are close to the same price* used, but they couldn't be any more different. *Regional prices create unique situations. I fully anticipate that in several areas of the world, the price difference will be more significant. The point to take home is that not all used laptops are equal, and an informed and educated consumer stands to save a lot of money or get a great deal.
