As someone who spends his day shuffling between conference rooms before mercifully being given time to work, I am grateful for every ounce shaved off of the device I work on. no sacrifice to battery, and it's on my company's dime if it fails.
- manigandham 8y agoWhy is shuffling between conference rooms so arduous? When did people become so weak as to not be able to carry a few pounds (or even ounces) between rooms? That's not a good thing and arguing about such little weight is indicative of much bigger health problems than any laptop design issues.
- organsnyder 8y agoI routinely walk home from work—3 miles, which takes about an hour. Even with a high-quality shoulder strap, I can notice a half-pound difference in laptop weight. My T480 is lighter than a 15" MBP, and is user-serviceable. It's also one of the less svelte models in the ThinkPad line—if I wanted to sacrifice a bit of repairability (nothing as bad as Apple) for some weight savings, I could have gone with a T480s or X1 Carbon.
