A quality Lenovo product. 4-star rating is assuming you are willing to upgrade the RAM the 2GB that it starts with is pathetic and runs the OS rather sluggishly. I have upgraded to 8GB (2x4GB) of RAM and it works out nicely. Onboard graphics are plenty for most applications, but not friendly towards gaming.
Also, some B590 models have a fingerprint scanner, this one does not. No foul I see it being a somewhat unnecessary feature.
Pros:
Price w/ Core i3 processor = good value
Windows 7 (Win8 is better geared towards touch interfaces IMO)
Durable construction (although time will tell)
About 6hrs of battery use w/ factory 6-cell
Plenty of USB ports
Cons:
2GB RAM (MUST be upgraded > 4GB to warrant 4 stars)
No backlit keyboard
Included crapware (pretty much standard on every laptop now)
