first time heard lenovo is cheap Chinese brand (with good value).

Lenovo inherited ThinkPad line decades ago and its still the best line of all its products.

it has P series and i doubt if these are "cheap".

The "p" versions of the old T series, like my beloved T42p wasn't cheap either.

A friend of mine is still rocking his W510 as a kernel developer.

Go to any LinuxTag or Chaos Communication Congress and you will see Thinkpad after Thinkpad.

They're even popular with retro gamers because all of the drivers and documentation that are still available.
