> - The brick is tiny. I and my family have owned several Thinkpads. I just bought a Thinkpad this past cyber Monday, and the power brick it came with is significantly larger than prior Thinkpad models' bricks. So much so that I was a little disheartened when I saw it. Since you mention you have a slightly older model, I suspect that your adapter is tiny, as you say, on par w/ MBPs'. But the current models from Lenovo have regressed in this respect. Just so you can see, here's a photo[1]. The smaller brick is from an older T500, and the larger one is from my new T460p. The small Lenovo and the MBP appear to output roughly the same. The larger, newer Lenovo one is capable of pushing more power, but at quite a cost in size.
