I think Lenovo is slowly abandoning what used to be the niche Thinkpad had filled in: great laptops for developers. There might be some good opportunities for startups. It's really frustrating to see that nothing ticks all boxes these

I love x220, but they are far from perfect. Some serious glitches: - Small & noisy fan - Awful trackpad (but awesome trackpoint) - Low resolution wide screen I cannot understand why Lenovo is destroying the x2 series. Now they: - Replac
