 Maybe Lenovo should get rid of David Hill and hire the likes of Javie-Jie and Hope instead?
Oh I'd love it. But it would only go so far. To get things done properly, it's Lenovo altogether which has to go.

Well, I for one was hoping for a 4:3 aspect ratio screen.

We still have a daily workhorse T410 with 16:10 aspect ratio and it is GREAT for our daily MS Excel work.
Also great if you need to crank out lots of MS Word essays/papers with small footnotes.

So imagine a 4:3 aspect ratio screen...
Daily Driver: (X1E3) X1 Extreme 3rd Gen | mobile broadband (WWAN)
Current Thinkpads: X1E3 | X1E1 | X1C10 | X1C9 | X1C4 | X1C3 | X230
Retired Thinkpads: X250 | T410 | T42 | 560 (circa 1996)
