[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started using Thinkpads in mid 90ies. Protected by titanium frame - it was the only product on the market that could be dropped onto granite airport floor and still run. Since then - all my laptops are from the "portable workstation" line. It combines amazing physical resilience with robustness and flexibility. Everything "just works" - never a problem with a stray driver or a peripheral, never a failing patch, never and unexpected crash. I have probably seen a bluescreen maybe a dozen times in all these years, usually when the machine is nearing the end of its life (some of these Thinkpads served by 10+ years, I still have circa 7 of them old, but humming , serving as wireless print servers or tvboxes around the house.
This brand new P17 which now takes the place of my primary development machine continues the great tradition.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love everything the Thinkpad offers but with a huge screen! I needed a laptop but my job requires a larger screen in order to operate efficiently and this does exactly that.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Thinkpad 17P is hyper fast and handles my 3 ultra wide screens beautifully. I am very impressed with how this desktop replacement handles for work.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a beast! This is a capable workhorse that will handle anything that you can throw at it. I'm a thinkpad customer for life now. Website is a little difficult to navigate but once you find what you want the processing and shipping are very fast. Got mine delivered in less than 48 hours.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ThinkPad P17 proved to be an excellent purchase. It arrived earlier than the original date specified in excellent condition. The screen is clear and sharp. It works fast. I have encountered no problems.
