My company has been using the Thinkpads for more than 10 years and I noticed no real change in quality before/after IBM sold out to Lenovo. We have mostly T series and some older R, Z and A series too. However, the shipment lead times absolutely SUCK! It takes weeks to get a customized build notebook and even mundane stuff like spare batteries can take 6-8 weeks as well. That is ludicrous.

Also, since they are now Chinese controlled, several of my customers and I assume certain government agencies do not allow them on premises. Thus I'll be switching standard brands shortly -- probably going with HP.
