    That’s not a Lenovo product, the ThinkPads that actually last were built by IBM. These new thinkpads die after 2-3 years of heavy use too

      I’ve been running a t430 for 6 years now, and all of my customers are running much newer machines. Their reliability is still undisputed. Out of everything else on the market, nothing from the other big names holds a candle.

        I guarantee Lenovo’s steam deck will be 1) hot garbage and 2) Carry some variation of Think or Pad in the name. It will be a crime.

          Very good chance. The rest of their stuff is trash. And if you asked the Thinkpad line to stand on it’s own merits rather than compared to the rest of the market, it would fall flat.
