Today I’ll be comparing the T520 from 2011 to the T440p from 2014. I can’t say it’s a bumbling failure either, because as much as I dislike certain aspects of it, it did have benefits I noticed when I went back to my older machine to type out this post. I can’t say the new Thinkpad trackpad & keyboard layout is an amazing improvement. I am a fanboy of one type of product only – the type that make my life easier. If something does what I need it to, under the circumstances I need it to work in, it’s welcome in my life. People who have never so much as touched the new design go on screaming on how terrible it is. I understand Lenovo’s side here – you read some of these comments and they seem like what you’d read on a forum filled with religious zealots. We are the crazy people who are not in favor of any laptop that appears modern. Many in favor of the older Thinkpad keyboard are accused of being lunatics, luddites, and curmudgeons. For both productivity and longevity, I can’t think of anything better than a Thinkpad. From perfect keyboards to indestructible design, I think it’s the best laptop around. Everyday customers ask me what they can do to not wind up here again, and everyday my answer is the same – buy a Thinkpad!
