New laptop

[malchard888]

I have a Lenovo think pad and a few weeks back it packed up and diagnosed as a motherboard failure which was somewhat disapponting being just over 2 years old and out of warranty.
I thought it worth writing a letter to them expressing my displeasure etc and to my amazement they agreed to the return of the laptop, repaired it F.O.C. and it works perfectly again.
I doubt that not too many manufacturers would be that sympathetic so full marks to Lenovo and I hope u get many years enjoyment from yours.

Stinkpads are excellent I bought two recon ones in 2011 from a recommendation on here circa £90 each. Wife immediately gave one to her then 12 year old nephew back home, he's had untold use out of it, still going strong but it's made him too much of a computer expert as he's making noises about wanting something more powerful Lenovo also own Medion Computers

Correct - they're German and used to assemble their machines there - I bought one of their desktops in 2005 from that now defunct German retail outfit Tchibo, good solid machine I gave it away when I upgraded but still used the monitor until it gave up 2 weeks ago.
