Typically for corporate use you would pick a Lenovo model with next business day onsite warranty. So in case it breaks, somebody will come over to fix it.

(This is why the components are easy to replace in those laptops)

Corporation that size isn't going to put up with Linux on the desktop if they're not FAANG and fuck deving on Windows.

I respectfully disagree with you on all accounts :)

Anyway, Lenovo care service (whatever its called) costs about $400-500 for three years and they send a technician to your place within 24 hours.

We have a fleet of Macs and thinkpads and the thinkpads last more and cost less in total.

I can take a macbook to the apple store today if I'm willing to wait an hour. And they're proven rock solid to me, Lenovo isn't.
