Lenovo is very disappointing
I ordered a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon in August that was supposed to ship Septmeber 2 and has been delayed multiple times because of supposed supply constraints of a USB ethernet dongle. They claim they cannot ship them separately. I bought the Thinkpad over a Macbook Air (the macbook air is cheaper) because I am hopeful the hardware is better supported by Linux drivers. Customer support is terrible. Their order status feature on their website works intermittently. My respect for Apple grows daily. If only Apple's hardware were less proprietary; if only other laptop manufacturers packaged products and delivered them as well as Apple.
