Make no mistake, even though lenovo is a chinese company, the thinkpads are still engineered properly, ive never owned an original thinkpad but the lenovo w510 I own is the best laptop ive ever had. Before my current computer I owned a Macbookpro, it didnt have a pro graphics card to run CAD properly I needed a Quadro or Fire GL based card so it was a pain in the ass to do projects on which required solidworks. (I am an engineering student). I am considering buying this tablet because i don't want to carry around my powerhouse all the time and i need something more portable to replace my textbooks, based on my past experience i would buy it.
Apple`s computers look nice but its......not where real engineering is, most of the Engineering programs are on windows.
