To add to this, my W500 seems pretty well built, and so far things are going fine. I'm happy with this model. It's amazing, the number of people I know, who got a laptop around the time I did (Thanksgiving) who have had to send their Dell/HP/Mac/? laptops in for repairs already. This doesn't mean that Lenovo can't or hasn't yet released a turkey, but I don't think they have so far. As I think of it I'm having a hard time remembering what X series I've gotten lately, because they go into people's hands, and I don't see them 'till some rotten Windows problem develops... --STeve Andre' _______________________________________________ Thinkpad mailing list [email protected] http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad
