> Apple is a lifestyle brand If "I want it to just work" is a lifestyle, then yeah, it's a lifestyle brand.

  It's astounding how difficult it is to find non-garbage build quality on, well, pretty much anything. Even just for something as basic as a charger, Apple is probably the only company you can rely on to not use third-rate electrolytic capacitors. Maybe Anker too.

  I've had a lot of "just works" with thinkpads' pre-loaded windows installs. Every other windows laptop brand, not so much. Mileage will of course vary - any thinkpad centric thread on here has a bunch of people with experiences like mine and a bunch of horror stories, after all.

    Back in the day I had a Thinkpad T40 tablet that served me very well. Absolutely bullet proof PC, and it could run Crysis on integrated graphics :)

  "I want it to just work" is a very subjective phrase. I think you'll find the majority of users have very different use cases for technology than you do. Also, try to read past the first sentence before you downvote me.
