These were great while they lasted. I bought them at the end of January and here we are on October 13th. The volume up button has completely sunken in and is now unusable. The skip song button is on its way out as well. I am very careful with these. I never ball them up and shove them in my pocket, nor do I throw them around. I do use them daily, but I am not a brute. To have buttons die off 9 months after spending $150 on ear buds is unacceptable to me. I am giving Jaybirds a shot.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Incredible, especially for the price
What's not so great: Could use more memory
I am a tier 3 IT helpdesk engineer, so feel free to take this with at least some credibility. A lot of reviews complain about Windows updates hanging, or other operating system issues. Off the bat, I need to remind everyone that Windows 8 is neither Lenovo's fault, nor problem. Now, on to the review.
Where I wouldn't necessarily recommend this for heavy duty use (e.g. video editing, multi-remote session log in, etc), this is probably the greatest laptop for home use I have used in...well as long as I can remember. The only con is that you can't upgrade the RAM (it's soldered onto the motherboard and capped at 4 GB). It is very quick and runs clean. My favorite feature is stand/tablet mode. If you fold the keyboard about 3/4 of the way back, it works as a stand and the touch screen goes into effect, activating "stand mode". If you fold the keyboard 100% of the way back, it goes into "tablet mode". The touch screen is incredibly accurate. I don't know if this is what they were going for, but the laptop looks and feels a lot like a mac, in terms of physically/keyboard feel. It weighs just under 5 lbs, so it feels like nothing. The battery holds a solid 5 hour charge (tested this myself, including high usage and video streaming).
And finally, the price. This is an absolute steal for even $700, let alone $530. I highly recommend this to anyone that needs a home laptop.
This product is... A touch pad that works great, A nice compact size, easy to set up, lightning fast
About me... Technology guru, it engineer
I would recommend this to a friend!

computer is not coming on even when fully charged. what can be responsible?

This could be any number of things.

1) Power button not fully connected to motherboard.
2) Motherboard fried.
3) Hard drive fried.
4) RAM fried.

My recommendation would be to take it into wherever you bought it and see if they can look at it and maybe exchange it.

Can you downgrade to Windows 7?

Are you able to downgrade to Windows 7? I want to be able to play Sims 2 on it and I've heard there are compatibility issues with Windows 8.
I've read in some forums that you can, but I wouldn't recommend it. You might lose a lot of drivers, e.g. (Web) Camera, Touch Screen, Wifi, etc. I know everyone prefers 7 (myself included), but I would advise against downgrading.

I saw in the reviews that wifi connectivity is a problem. Is that true? Is there any fix?

I haven't had any issue with wifi yet, and have used it in 5 different locations/wireless zones.
