I don't think she got it discounted. I just dislike touchscreens on lower spec machines exactly because they reduce the actual value of the device as it tends tp then have worse internals to accomodate the touchscreen and thus is less likely to last longer.

It was discounted, it had been much more expensive in the past and they were selling off the last of them. It was out of stock shortly after.
