_Thinkpad: A Different Shade of Blue_ by Deborah A. Dell and J. Gerry Purdy

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/483933.ThinkPad

I've always regretted not getting one of the tablet Thinkpads, and it kills me that the Lenovo Yogabook 9i is two technologies away from being perfect for me (needs to have a Wacom EMR stylus, and to have a Trackpoint)....





I had a rotating-display Thinkpad 2-in-1, and I think the design peaked in the model previous to that, the X1 Carbon.

I have a preference for using a stylus, and kind of wish I could go back to the previous gen stylus tech and use an X230T (or that there would be an update of that model, or an easy way to replace the digitizer for the newer styluses).

I am just waiting for linux to get sorted out on it and then I will buy. It might not be perfect but it looks pretty great. I mainly wish it had a headphone jack, bluetooth is not great for working on music.


The lack of a headphone jack is a good point --- I'll be sad when my dedicated MP3 player quits working and needs to be replaced.
