During the ongoing Lenovo Back to School Sale, devices in various categories are seriously discounted up to 68% off. What's more, Lenovo states that college students and teacher can even get an extra 20% off select accessories as long as they verify that they are indeed college students or teachers. That can equal out to some really great savings, in total. 

Of the device currently on sale, the Lenovo ThinkVision 23.8-inch Monitor - T24i-30 is a fantastic choice for anyone who needs a budget monitor. It was already a cheap display option because it is a few years old (it has a VGA connection to give some context). However, it still offers a respectable 1920 x 1080 resolution in a 16:9 aspect ratio and can reach up to a 60Hz refresh rate, which is really good. Plus, there are multiple useful ports to make use of including an HDMI 1.4 port, DisplayPort 1.4, and multiples USB-A ports. The best discount for this monitor is $139.00 at Newegg

Outside of the monitor, I also recommend checking out the Lenovo Yoga 7i 16 (Gen 8). This is a reliable 2-in-1 device that can function as laptop or can be folded backward into a tablet mode. It offers great battery life to last your entire school or workday. Just don't expect to be able to run graphically demanding programs on it or intensive video games. Right now, it's only $789.99 at Lenovo.

Finally, for those of you who are short on room but want a decent desktop, you should look at the ThinkStation P3 Tiny Workstation. It's basically a mini PC with tons of ports. You'll be able to connect to a monitor using either an HDMI 2.1 or DisplayPort 1.4 connection. Plus, there are multiple USB ports for plugging in your various accessories. To save room, you can either stand it up vertically or lay it flat, horizontally, beneath your monitor. It's currently only $879.00 at Lenovo
