I wonder the same. We used to take cell phones not being waterproof as standard. Now everybody expects them to be waterproof.
The idea that is single spilled coffee can cause $1000 of damage or more to a laptop is ridiculous.
- blackoil 3y agoSpill proof should be possible reasonably. Think pad used to have channels for water drainage not sure they still have them. Dunking proof laptop would be possible but tradeoff not worth it.

I pestered my department to get me a Lenovo instead of a Dell because I had bought into the reliability hype; one minor water-spill later, my laptop freaked out and since then has permanently degraded performance. See if I get another Lenovo ever again. But anyway, if you are like me with arm mobility issues and in danger of spilling stuff on your laptop, get some custom made rugged laptop because no manufacturer cares anymore; if anything, they seem to care the other way round.
