> The Carbon X1 is made from carbon fiber. It super-robust and light-weight at the same time.

If I'm honest I have no Idea why there is an ad for the X1 on hackernews today. The page itself is 404-ing for me.

That said, I held an X1 carbon last september when shopping for a new laptop with my girlfriend. It was a fucking glorious machine.

In the end we wound up buying the lenevo yoga because it comes with an i7, SSD, & 8gigs ram (the three checkboxes I need on a laptop) - this was the cheapest with all my boxes ticked.

X1C was a lot more expensive, but you could feel why when you held it. What a beautiful machine.

(Again, why is it listed as a link on HN? Just so we can moon over it? Fair I guess)

Then you should try the X1 Yoga - basically an X1 Carbon 4th gen with the yoga hinges and a wacom digitizer and a glorious screen..

It has been my main laptop since release and it is by far the best laptop I ever owned...

5th gen X1 Yoga just released. MMMM, it has USB-C now, aka finally a real docking solution. Also has WiGig but I am not sure how that is.
