Solid deal! Do you know if they went via third party for the repair or employed their own techs?

Their repair is through IBM. I'm not sure at what point I was talking to Lenovo employees and when I was talking to IBM.
Previous to converting to Lenovo I had two Macbooks. The first Intel white Macbook lasted about a year and a half before dying. I didn't have apple care but when I replaced that with a Macbook Pro I got apple care. That laptop was repaired 8 times, the 9th time it needed to be repaired Apple told me it would cost $800 to replace the motherboard because I had upgraded the hard drive.
Needless to say I swore off Apple's crappy HW and purchased my first Lenovo. That x230 never needed any service. My current X1 only broke because I plugged in a 10 year old $15 off brand external cdrom that fried and pumped 12v from the power adapter into the USB port.
