I agree with all that, (we have an X40 here and it rocks), but the point
still remains that IBM have sold the business and there is no guarantee
that the new models will be built to the same quality and or have the
same stability in terms of their components.
If you're buying pre-Lenova Thinkpads I 100% recommend them, if your
buying a Lenova thinkpad I simply can't vouch for anything.
