Of course they shouldn't get a pass.

My point is, we can't expect them to behave. And if they promise to, that promise isn't worth much.

Yep. If a train ticket costs 100 euro and the fine for freeloading is 5 euro, you'd be a fool to buy a ticket.

Don't blame Google for pushing boundaries. That's what people (and corpos) do in any competitive activity. Do blame our politicians for being incompetent and ill-meaning.

Pfft. It's been 6 years, they just introduced a shittier version, and it's a smash hit. Most ahead-of-its-time computer ever made.

Windows users don't care. The MS account is some set-and-forget BS for the most part.

> they have no excuse

That's irrelevant, because they don't owe you an excuse to begin with.

The clear historical record seems to indicate we've got a bunch of pathological liars trying to automate pathological lying.

Common sense is not profound. What you suggested is a bit too much, but some accountability and reciprocity would be a good start.

I, for one, totally believe the government will prevent the government from abusing the government's power. /s

Pretty sure they didn't do a lot of thinking.

> Kind of like nuclear weapons

True, but you're not being bombarded 24/7 with irrelevant -- and most likely false -- information about nuclear weapons.

Better SoC, no spinning fans. Also the screen won't die after 2 years of light mode usage.

The remaining stuff... I'd say Lenovo has caught up for the most part.

I unironically like the trackpad and keyboard on the Neo better than Air/Pro's.

It's not a perfect laptop, but I promise you people who spend $600 on their computer have never seen anything comparable.

> People must want Windows or Linux so badly they will pay 25-30% for a thinkpad

Yup, I got Thinkpad X9, the idea being "Air 15 but with Windows". It does the job. I still think Air 15 is better (and cheaper), but the software compatibility and not needing to switch platforms outweighs that.
