I thought it was a real Lenovo torture test like the 35mps crash test into a brick wall. That video is pretty cool. @ Dan2600 Lenovo's have always prided themselves in their durability. Mac doesn't tout it can be dropped, rained on, pissed on, whatever, but I am pretty sure its hard drive will be totally fine if it were run over by the 26,000 Lb. truck as well. No I will not try it as I respect my electronics. I almost bought a T400. Its only flaw was Vista. I went with a Macbook (no I am not a Fanboy). Now if I ever had/or will have a Lenovo I sure as hell would not treat in any differently then my Macbook. BTW last week my 13" Unibody Mac fell off a 4ft. counter and hit my floor hard landing on the left front corner near its battery indicatior. I almost cried as I thought my computer would be toast. The metal unibody took the hit very well only leaving a couple of scuffs that are barley noticeable. I was really shocked it took the fall as well as it did. I will try however to never ever do it again. Just an FYI. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sanman76]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 18th 2009 11:07AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo ThinkPad T400s run over by truck, left out in tornado in new spate of videos]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/lenovo-t400s-run-over-by-truck-left-out-in-tornado-in-new-spate/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/lenovo-t400s-run-over-by-truck-left-out-in-tornado-in-new-spate/</guid><description><![CDATA[."

I tried building a Vista Certified PC around Vista 64. I had hardware failures left and right. The problem was Vista. XP installed perfectly and has been used on my PC since. I am just tired of XP. It is too old and tired.  Also Mac can run an OS as well but do inside OS X. Meaning I can have access to as many OSes I want without having to reboot. I currently have XP, Windows 7, and Ubuntu.
