I wonder if there'll be a 30th anniversary edition like there was at the 25th
Yep there's a 30th edition X1 Carbon though the only difference is the sticker and the box https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadx1/t...
My Thinkpad X220 still going strong, and I miss a computer I can open up, replace or upgrade what's needed in an easy way. The form factor is good enough and I don't need or want this inch thin laptops just because one company decided it's suits them and fashionable. Unfortunately Lenovo doesn't really keep the brand and in the gazillion models they have on stock, there isn't one that can replace my X220 in convenien…

Can't imagine who's buying that at $4000. Your average Thinkpad enthusiast probably paid less for their last ten ThinkPads combined than that.
The old school pre-Lenovo keyboards are the best ever made. Nothing even comes close to that feeling.
It's interesting how the ThinkPads used to be the tech person's™ laptop of choice because of their repairability and extendability, but nowadays most tech people (at least in the professional setting) are using Apple's MacBooks which are the opposite when it comes to repairability and extendability.
I’ve been a bit of a Thinkpad fanatic ever since my dad got a T42p somewhere in 2004. I have been on Thinkpads since 2006. I bought old ones on eBay and now have a collection of about 15 machines. The 700c, two butterfly keyboard 701cs, the 240 and a lot more. I’m currently on a T495s. From my experience I can say that the “old IBM machines were reliable and well constructed” is not true. They were bulky and over tim…
