Another (cheaper) option at Lenovo is $959 with pickup at BestBuy:
https://www.lenovo.com/us/vipmemb...83hm0000us

So far, the Beneplace store is open to everyone.

As I've said before, this is a great laptop at this price. Personally, I'd get an open box [bestbuy.com] for much cheaper at BestBuy but I know not everyone is happy with open box product.

True, but cheaper for those that don't need Pro (or who have an old Win 10 Pro key to upgrade to 11 Pro with).

It would be nice -- it's time to see the 258V getting some deals. There's literally no difference between 256V and 258V other than RAM.

No difference, except for the system OS.

Between Home and Pro? Found this searching Google:

Windows 11 Home is designed for consumers, while Windows 11 Pro is designed for businesses and professionals. The main differences between the two editions are:
RAM and CPU: Windows 11 Pro supports up to two CPUs with 128 cores and two terabytes of RAM, while Windows 11 Home supports up to one CPU with 64 cores and 128 gigabytes of RAM.
Security: Windows 11 Pro has more robust security features, including BitLocker drive encryption and Windows Information Protection.
Device management: Windows 11 Pro includes features like Group Policy Editor, which lets IT admins configure policies for groups of devices.
Virtualization: Windows 11 Pro supports virtualization software.
Remote control: Windows 11 Pro includes remote control capabilities.

If they had 32gb version for, say, a $100 premium, I would have already purchased this laptop.

The 32GB RAM version is only a $100 premium when you custom build. The problem is, the custom build, despite being the same hardware, starts at a much higher price than this deal.

As in too much and I should be looking for something else? I tend to have prob 12+ windows open and need to put a ton of family pics on it. I also want something I could watch a movie on the plan or have up when cooking and need to view receipes.

Sorry for the nob questions. Is this a good fit or looking for something else?

I have the 32GB RAM version of this laptop and love it. Super quick, excellent screen and speakers, great battery life, nice keyboard, and has a USB A port as well as a full size HDMI port. Checked all the boxes for me.
