How about they make a thinkpad laptop up to the quality standards of the old thinkpads?
I have several lenovos, all of which exhibit "case flex" syndrome in which random typing occurs, and jacks come loose etc, as in cheap netbooks.
They are simply not built robustly as the IBM thinkpads were, regardless of the manufacturer being Lenovo in either case. There IS a market for a quality non-luxury workhorse for those who work for a living.
Hmm? which ones are you talking about? I use both a T480 and some previous ones and I haven't seen loose jacks or random typing on mine.
