Is this a deal I should jump on?

Lenovo offers its 6.2-lb. Lenovo IdeaPad Y580 Intel Ivy Bridge Core i7 2.4GHz 15.6" LED-Backlit Laptop in Dawn Gray, model no. 59359510, for $1,349. Coupon code "USPY51020110" drops it to $929. With free shipping, that's $420 off and the first deal we've seen for an ideaPad Y580 with SSD cache and Blu-ray.

15.6" 1920x1080 (1080p) LED-backlit LCD,

Deal ends January 18.

Deal is over (March already), so I am closing the thread. Thanks for the heads-up, hawkeyej14. Especially for posting the ending date, so we don't go looking for vaporware.
