I had a T440s for a while. It had a very thin LCD cover, I don't think it would have liked being sat on, the screen would be crushed down onto the trackpoint. Didn't feel confident with it, went back to a X230, and still keep a rigid plate in my laptop sleeve on the screen side. Some of the older thinkpads had very robust screen covers (at least they looked that way), the T500 in particular, with some kind of honeycomb 'rollcage' in the screen. This machine might also have a funny SSD connector, that makes it difficult to upgrade. Maybe not. Wish they would make a machine with a 3:2 screen.
