Greetings, Thanks for all the recommendations. I have now settled for the Lenovo Y580 running I7 2.1 QM processor getting up to 3.1 with turbo boost, 8 GB RAM and 1TB hard disc. The only issue is I can't find this model running Windows 7 any more.
I'd truly appreciate if someone can tell me please how to downgrade from Windows8 to Windows 7. Also, would it be possible to reinstall other software that comes with the laptop?

I really don't know all the technical details. However, it does have the number pad built in to the right side of the keyboard. I hope this helps.

I shall be grateful if people can recommend a high performance, professional looking machine running Windows 7 with a good battery life? A kind soul recommended HP DV6 but that model is three years old. Having said that I really like the specs and the full keyboard and if anyone know of a comparable model running an I7 processor would be ideal.
