Mine has long history. I had to hack the BIOS to get LTE working because original BIOS does not support any LTE cards and have already disassembled it completely to the last part twice after I got it wet. Once with hot, sweet latte and once completely drenched with sparkling water.

I had no tools to open the laptop and power button stopped working so it was not possible to go to bios and disconnect power (the internal battery is always on). I had to stand it on its side like an open wet book to let the water drain and then went shopping for tools. The end was that I had to disassemble EVERYTHING including LCD panel where it had water between individual leaves. I never knew that panel has so many layers.

Anyway, it still lives on. I curse it about once a week for being so tough preventing me from buying newer, better machine:)

I have a T440s and a T470. Right now I am using the T440s, because there was record rainfall in my city, and it is humid as hell, and the T470 crashed soon after starting - I think because of humidity. It was working just fine last night after which I had to open all the windows because I lost power.

The T440s doesn't even care.

My next laptop is going to get couple upgrades from the very start. One I am planning is to put conformal coating on major components and that includes entire motherboard.

I hope the gitclear project succeeds. It promises so much and it is backed by many people as well.
