Professional image.

You want your small business to stand out; your business tools can help. This laptop projects an image of smart professionalism with progressive design features like the elegant, moss-black, soft-touch finish; authentic polished metal accents; eye-catching infinity glass display; and clean, comfortable, island-style keyboard. Wrap it up in a thin, light package that's easy to bring on any trip or to any meeting, and you have a laptop that tells the world you're here — and you mean business.

Ambitious performance.

What's style without substance? The E420s is hard-working to its core. Or maybe that should say "cores" — as in, quad cores. Thanks to its 2nd generation Intel® Core™ processors with Turbo Boost and Hyper-Threading, this laptop is responsive, fast and powerful enough to keep the pace with your most aggressive young entrepeneurs. The CPU is 20% faster and handles multitasking with ease. Enhanced Experience 2.0 with its business optimization and faster startup and shutdown times enhances your productivity. Ample memory and storage — up to 8GB DDR3, 320GB HDD and 128GB SSD — mean this workhorse can handle whatever your professionals can throw at it.

   

Responsible reliability.

It might look different, but the E420s retains the vaunted ThinkPad reliability. You can rest at ease knowing it has a spill-resistant keyboard, Active Protection System™ and Rescue and Recovery® to protect your data and a tough-as-nails magnesium-aluminum construction with reinforced metal hinges for durability. Fingerprint ID lends an added measure of protection and standard security tasks run in the background, keeping your data safe while you work. And you're not the only one who can rely on this laptop — the environment can, too, thanks to a level of energy efficiency that complies with ENERGY STAR 5.0 and EPEAT® Gold standards.

Stand-out extras.

Small details make a big difference. The E420s offers convenient features to make your work easier: a 720p HD webcam and keystroke noise suppression software for the ultimate VoIP experience; multiple connectivity options; InstantResume for minimal downtime after sleep mode; wireless display technology; an integrated ThinkLight for usage in low light; a sleek, slot-loading DVD drive; HDMI 1.4 for external display of high-def content; DirectX® 11 for powerful, realistic video rendering in discrete graphics mode; and Dolby® Home Theater® 4 for premium sound.

     

Accessories on the edge.

Enjoy true mobility as you power your laptop and cell phone (or other handheld device) with the Lenovo 90W Ultraslim AC/DC Combo Adapter -- perfect at a desk, on the road or in the air. Or connect it to the Lenovo USB 2.0 Port Replicator with Digital Video, giving you easy access to four USB 2.0 devices, a VGA analog or DVI digital monitor with up to 1920 x 1200 resolution, stereo audio in/out and integrated Ethernet. And be sure to protect your investment from theft with a Kensington Microsaver Cable Lock.
