Switched to a thinkpad x1 carbon just over a month ago, coming from years of macbooks. I'm over the moon. The trackpad isn't as good, but all the things I use the trackpad for are easily replaced with keyboard shortcuts.
Apple should be very worried. Once they loose the developers, users won't be long to follow.

Honestly the clit mouse probably works better than both trackpads.
> For the most part, it sits on one of two desks that I use or it sits on my lap on the train. If this is the case, do yourself a favor and go and buy two ergonomic screens, keyboards and mice - one for each location. It'll save you becoming a hunched over laptop gremlin.
I want Apple's screen and trackpad and Lenovo's keyboard, ports, and cooling.
I switched to a Thinkpad after I had the horror of using a new Macbook. Running Ubuntu is lovely, so much so that for a developer there is little reason to be using a Macbook anymore. You can get a lot more bang for the buck using a Thinkpad AND have a functional keyboard. Apple should be very worried. Once they loose the developers, users won't be long to follow.
Overall, keyboard doesn't bother me that much after a couple of hours. I can type pretty fast in this thing. i5 duo core isn't that bad, either. I can multi-task quite well. So far I have zero regret.
