Do Lenovo release models usually have problems that later on get resolved?

As far as I can remember, some particular early models of T60 (Core Duo based) had over-heating problem (the GPU of my original T60 2007-66U would reach 100+ Clesius degrees after 15 minutes of 3D games ). The problem was later resolved when the Core 2 Duo based T60.

I'm placing an order hopefully minutes after release, and I'm hoping that any defects can be replaced with a minor FRU.
