![]() THIS IS YOUR GRANDMOTHER'S VW! THIS IS NOT YOUR GRANDMOTHER'S VW!
![]() THIS IS YOUR FATHER'S PC! THIS IS NOT YOUR FATHER'S PC! Few people associate the direct linage between the original IBM PC and the current generation of Lenovo ThinkCentre PCs, or between the original IBM ThinkPad Laptop and the current generation of Lenovo ThinkPad Laptops, but link is absolute and direct - do not pass Go and do not collect $200. Well, at least for all the other manufacturers can't pass GO or collect $200, except for Lenovo. Back in 1981, I was working on IBM Series 1 computers in the Boston area, and one day they brought me a brand new computer. It was a microcomputer from IBM called the IBM PC, and the I'm pretty sure the serial number was 287! So, I for one know what I am talking about. Like the "new generation VW Bug" and the "original VW bug", the current ThinkCentre PCs are direct descendents from the original IBM PC, and the current ThinkPad Laptops, Notebooks, and Tablets are direct descendents from the legendary IBM ThinkPad. No kidding. No other manufacturer can make that claim, only Lenovo. Lenovo ThinkPad Rugged Enterprise Tablet Aside
from the long and deep heritage that Lenovo products have, there are
many other things that set them ahead form the competition, first and
foremost - quality. Several years ago, my brother began to work at
Lenovo, and he asked me to try the product. I thought he was crazy. We
were happy selling ACER, Compaq, HP, and other brands of computers, and
after all, we all "knew" the Lenovo brand was more expensive. Well, I
began to buy and resell Lenovo products, and I immediately noticed a
huge drop in the requirement to "support" (fix) the equipment we sold.
The quality, we truly superior, and, after all, not having to fix
something means way more than money. You don't have to be without your
machine, you don't have to figure out what is wrong in the first, and
you don't end up with a "fixed" machine - all very good things. We also
have come to know the Lenovo strategy of having a reasonable lifespan
for each model, and Lenovo for supporting the product, long past the
actual end of manufacturing. If you want another of something you
bought, very likely you can get it for some time after you bought the
original. If you want accessories, they are available for a good long
time, and, if on the odd chance you do need support, it too is available
for years after you bought a machine. Again, all good things.Next, there is the durability issue. One of the reasons computers break is because they are not very rugged. A gentle drop, and a gentle bump can cause great harm to your computer made by another manufacturer, but not a ThinkPad. These machines are very rugged, and can take a lot of "use" before something comes up "broken". This multiplies your investment dollars, since "if it ain't broke", you don't have to fix or replace it. All ThinkPads have metal plates inside them to make them extra "stiff", so you don't have to worry about the internal damage that comes from "flexing" as you do with mostly all other manufacturers. The durability of the IBM ThinkPad is legendary, and so it is for the Lenovo ThinkPad. You can break them, but you have to be very determined in your efforts. They, like the Energizer Bunny, just keep working, and working, and working! This is a very good thing. Lenovo T420s Rugged Enterprise Laptop Last, I want to comment on here is the "enterprise" nature of these
computers. Both the ThinkPad and ThinkCentre families of computers are
meant to be the "gold standard" for large enterprises. So, that means
that these computers come in all sizes and configurations within the
families. You can get the standard "tower" ThinkCentre, which gives you
power and expansion. You can get the "small form factor" ThinkCentre,
which gives you all that power, but is a smaller package. Then, there is
my favorite, and our best seller, the 'ultra small form factor"
ThinkCentre, which gives you all that power and reliability is a truly
tiny package - an amazing computer. The same is true for the ThinkPad
family of computers. You can get the ThinkPad X120e, which gives you a
powerful and durable computer in an 11.6" screen size - very small. Then
there are the X220 and X220s machines, with a 12.1" screen, incredible
durability, super light, extra thin, and amazing battery life as well.
The X1 is new and gives you a 13" screen, and is a powerful,
lightweight, and durable computing package. My favorite, the T420s, with
a 14" screen size, is a super durable, crazy powerful, amazingly
lightweight laptop, with a battery life that never ceases to amaze me,
and the two cousins, the T420 and the T520 round out the X and T Series
ThinkPad family with all the same features that make us love our
ThinkPad. There are also other ThinkPad lines within the family, like
Edge, E Series, SL Series and the like, giving you many options and many
"price points", making it always possible to "afford" a ThinkPad
computer. Last, there is the Lenovo ThinkPad Enterprise Tablet,
powerful, rugged, fast, and very intuitive in use. The new standard of
all Android based Tablet Computers. So, if you need a computer, don't be fooled by others, Lenovo
ThinkCentre and ThinkPad computers are the only brand and families that
can be traced back directly to the legendary IBM PC and IBM ThinkPad. My
question is simple, why would you willingly pay more for less?There are a lot more reasons why we use, and our customers use Lenovo computers and Servers, but they are too numerous to list and describe here. Give us a call or drop us a line, and we will be happy to discuss these amazing machines and what they can do for you.
