Lenovo X200 Tablet Is An Excellent Laptop, But Poorly Built.

[epu]

I had an accident back in August. Someone bumped into me, my laptop fell out of my case and cracked alongside the base assembly. Fine, I take that as my own fault. Today, in a leather PADDED case, the laptop fell about 1 foot onto a carpeted floor and a piece chipped off the other side of the BASE ASSEMBLY. I LOVE my THINKPAD, and THIS ONE in particular, but the build is SO WEAK! NONE of my IBMs were this fragile, neither was my own Lenovo X61. I'm about to purchase a new BASE ASSEMBLY and reconstruct my thinkpad, or send it off somewhere where it can be reassembled. I KNOW I should've been super careful with it (and believe me I am very careful with my laptops, but things happen), but the build is really cheap.

I guess this is the trade off for a lighter notebook.
