    do ibm lenovo have any offerings? they tend to be build like tanks

    My Lenovo had a disk error last week (even though it has a SSD in it).

    It's under a £30 warranty for next-day on-site support, and whilst it took a week for them to come out (they sent a new SSD on day 1, day 2 I tested it and on day 3 a new mainboard arrived, weekend passed, day 6 engineer arrives).

    What I was stunned at, was that it was likely my fault (I was running a larger and more power demanding SSD than the one they supplied, but yet they:
    1) Gave me a new SSD
    2) Replaced the mainboard
    3) Replaced the whole case of the laptop

    #2 was "just in case", and #3 was because the engineer wasn't happy the power socket had 2mm of give to it when he plugged the power in.

    All of this, on-site (in my tower block), and constantly in touch with them.

    I think this Lenovo is the best laptop I've ever had (an X220 with 8GB RAM), but a warranty that without too much fuss is willing to fix the laptop on-site is stunning.

    I seriously rate Lenovo, love the industrial design... but add the IBM support to it and it rocks.
