Thinkpad retro is coming soon. Modern thinkpad with old school keyboard.
- artursapek 9y agoI hope it's so successful that Lenovo stops treating it as a "fun project" and starts offering evolutions of it as part of their main product line.
- meddlepal 9y agoSadly I don't think it will be. The problem is most businesses will probably view it as a novelty line and stay clear in favor of the mainstream product lines. This will lead to Lenovo claiming it was a failure in the long run because there was low-demand and burying this issue for good.

- wpietri 9y agoOh wow! I thought this project had died; I'm so excited. I type this on a five-year-old Thinkpad. Every year I look at the Lenovo site, see what fresh horrors the keyboard contains, and sigh.
- taude 9y agoLooks disappointing to me because no 4:3 screen.
- insertnickname 9y agoMost laptops are terrible. We should celebrate that this one might not have a terrible keyboard.
