For example (regarding my last comment), here is a brand new t480s with even better specs than you were looking at for $1,160, which is anywhere from $400-$600 less than the laptop you would have spec'd on their regular site.
You still get the Lenovo warranty, you still get a brand new machine, you still get everything you want. You just pay less because someone else's order got canceled.
I really love the look and sound of the new Razer Blade Stealth 2019, but is it overkill? Would something like a Lenovo Ideabook or an XPS 13 without dedicated graphics actually work just fine and be a better fit? I've got information overload at this point, mixed with a deficit of information on my specific use case, and it's crippling my ability to make a decision.
