Those are both issues with running Windows on Thinkpads. The article's author is running Linux. Besides, there are very few options for decently built laptops with good keyboards.

It‘s mostly an issue with the decision makers at lenovo. Were linux as widespread as a desktop os as windows, it would have happened to linux too.

I agree and I wish they had some competition, but they really don't. I'm currently holding out hope that System76 will put out a nice Linux laptop as part of the Thelio line. I'm not holding my breath though and will probably have to get another Thinkpad once my current one dies.

The linked computer isn't meaningfully a Lenovo computer anyway.
