Lenovo ruined the ThinkPad reputation. They try so hard with unwanted features from Apple. If I need those features, I will get MacBook Air or Pro. The legendary brand, once known for reliability, now comes with RAM stuck to the motherboard. Not to mention overheating and a weird bug for Linux power management. The best ThinkPads are older ones. You can get them from eBay and install Linux on them. The newer ones are not worth my money and time. YMMV.
