Someone recently gifted me a ThinkPad. It is hands down the most awesomely satisfying piece of computing equipment I have ever owned.
Of course, I wouldn't dream of running this or any other real computer with a pre-installed OS.

One charm of this ThinkPad is it works superbly with some Arch Linux on it.

These 2 statements contradict each other. Either you reinstall the OS (OK maybe you didn't technically REinstall, but most people would call installing a different OS "reinstalling the OS") or you still running the default OS.
The BIOS thing was specifically targeted at Windows installations, a thing I havn't bothered with since the previous millenium.
I am clearly not representative of anything. I was given a MacBook at work once, and forced to use it. I hated that shitmachine with a passion.
