  this is their most repairable product as of yet.

  thinkpads were always repairable, that and durability is their number one attribute. you present it as if it were somehow new thing.

    Even though they were considered repairable, they are now better than ever at that, and they require as little expense as possible to replace certain parts.

    I don’t know what’s so hard about that. They had it good, they made it better.

      there isn’t really anything revolutionary described in the article (maybe with an exception of these detachable ports).

      i have no idea how much things got worse in the last few years, so it is possible they are fixing something they broken lately, but again, presenting it as something new, when it is in fact something that thinkpads were known for since the last ice age and is why people are using them, is just strange to me.
