I am very concerned about thinkpads and bios malware, as installed by Lenovo: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20150812/11395231925/lenovo-busted-stealthily-installing-crapware-via-bios-fresh-windows-installs.shtml This may not be a concern to you, but to many people it is an issue. Thinkpads are nice. Their BIOS is not nice.
