MacBook Pro is a lie

I wish we could get reasonably priced and spec'd Thinkpads in India. Had to move on to an MBP last year after almost 8 years with a T60 and T410.

I still find it odd that people bring up Thinkpads in comparison with MacBook Pros. I have used Thinkpads for a while. Both my personal and business laptop are Thinkpads, and I'm unimpressed. The screens are low quality. The one on my personal device is utter trash. The trackpads are low quality mostly due to drivers. I won't buy another. They are better than some alternatives but I don't think they compare to MacBooks for finish or feel, and they cost about the same for similar specs.

A lot of the Thinkpad comparisons are based on nostalgia, IMO. I used to love Thinkpads, but ever since they went to Lenovo, they've been steadily going downhill.
