Lenovo is the only major computer selling to Russia - and they are selling a lot of parts, components, and systems

I have set two sisters, a brother, and my wife up with Lenovo systems

I was deciding on a new gaming laptop for myself

But no more

I can't do business with a company that supports Putin's War or one that rates profits more highly than lives

Nor should you!

Wait... "8760 hours" resource? But that's how many hours there are in a year.
So you have to plug/unplug this thing all the time? Damn. Good luck explaining this to everyone in your family!

Spoken like a true lemming.
Double ironic that you'd be buying "THINKpads". Not much of that going up in the ol' noggin, eh?

Am I the only one who sees this and wants the prongs to retract in with a twist of the casing similar to a lipstick tube? Missed opportunity Lenovo x'D

Anker sells a similar device but it also includes a built in battery that's just marginally bigger than this Lenovo device. So it can charge and power a laptop at same time.
