There is minimal crapware on this machine, if any. This is replacing my work issued 6 pound T430 (they gave me that for international travel.... har har.) The difference is substantial, but the Yoga Pro 2 *beats* the T430 (i5 with 8GB and a regular hard drive) performance wise. The Ultra HD display does cause a few scaling issues, but that's not a Lenovo specific problem. Certain programs don't understand how to use the display, so you will end up with an icon in IBM Notes (stop laughing) that's literally 4-5mm in size. I'm sure there's a way to fix this (I really, really, hope). I've already enlarged icons, which makes the programs that understand how to scale to a super high resolution screen far too large, so I'll keep looking. Awesome laptop though. Ultralight power brick too.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I need to run Quickbooks Pro by Intuit for accounting. Will the Yoga 2 Pro run that programs without problems?

As long as Quickbooks Pro is compatible with Windows 7/8 I don't know why it wouldn't. The hardware is plenty fast for basic needs like Quickbooks.

Conflicting WiFi information

On the Overview tab in the "Product Features" section it says "Next-Gen Intel® Wireless-AC connectivity
Connect to a Wireless-AC router for up to 3x the speed, more capacity and broader coverage than Wireless-N. Backward-compatible with all other Wi-Fi networks and hotspots." also the AC Wi-Fi Logo is displayed. But in the Specifications tab it says "Wireless Networking Wireless-B+G+N".

Which is correct?

Thank you.
The unit I purchased in mid December has "Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260" listed in device manager. I think the earlier editions only had -n, but mine is AC. I doubt Best Buy updated the product description since it essentially didn't change from "Yoga 2 Pro".
