There is a big difference between the consumer class laptops and the
enterprise class machines. In the case of Lenovo the Thinkpad is an
enterprise class machine, made for businesses. The Ideapad is a consumer
class machine and is made for a price point. In the case of HP Probook and
Elitebook are enterprise class machines. Most still ship with Win7 or Win7
Pro as that is what businesses demand.

My workplace supplies one with a Lenovo laptop unless one scrapes together
funds to buy something else.
The damned things are as disposable as Kleenex. I've had my MacBook Pro for
over 5 years (knock on wood), and a colleague has been through 3 Lenovo
laptops in the same time, with less intense use.

A year ago, I bought my wife a Lenovo laptop. Apparently these machines
aren't the best there is, but this was for very light home use, my wife
does nothing with a home computer beyond a bit of web surfing. She doesn't
even have a home email address.
Anyway, she told me a month ago that the keyboard was faulty, and several
keys didn't work.
Apparently, the Lenovo warranty is one year, and the machine was off
warranty by manufacture date.
Eventually, I was able to get Lenovo to extend the warranty to the retail
sales date, so I took it in to the shop where a bad keyboard was
diagnosed.
The repair depot has now decided that they have no knowledge of the
computer coming in to be looked at, and now the warranty has expired.
Note to self, do not EVER buy another Lenovo computer.
Friends don't let friends buy Lenovo.
