Don't be hasty! Lenovo probably "upgraded" it with performance improvements like failing to validate SSL certificates.

- morganvachon 11y agoCame here to say this. No thanks, Lenovo, I can get the same performance and form factor directly from Intel with no "added value" spyware, and I can even get it with Linux preinstalled if I want.

- morganvachon 11y agoTheir business line is decent, I had a ThinkCentre machine a while back that was rock solid. Their consumer line is not nearly as polished, and with the spyware stuff from last year I now won't even touch their business hardware, which arguably wasn't affected. I moved our company from Lenovo to Dell and HP for any new workstations, specifically because of the loss of trust. It's not even about the possibility of an infection as I always re-image any new machine we get immediately, it's more about the principle, and my boss agreed.
