Yes, sure. That's why I never sold or tore apart my computers. This way I had all the time in the world until everything was taken care of.

I feel Thinkpad can win things back. Do check the new Carbon X1 2017.

Unfortunately I can't stand Lenovo machines. They just don't do it for me...

I think calling it "Lenovo" as such could be a big generalization, but still you right for the 95%. And The good 5% , I'd say they are trying hard to stick the the IBM standard at least through the Thinkpad lineage.
Even in that, Thinkpad windows Tablets have been truly poor.
But the standard business machines whatever we have, works solid. I'd never look at anything else with Lenovo, other than the Thinkpads. Come on, you gotta love those military standard builds and blinking green LEDs  
The other ones I liked were Dell Latitude series. They were decent & reliable as well.

The only trouble is, Windows is just so horrible! I'd much prefer it if Apple fixed their issues!

My 9 year old iMac finally died a few months ago. Not sure what I was thinking but I bought an Intel NUC and set it up with Windows 10.
Total piece of crap. About 30% of the time it will blue screen (with 1 of about 8 different messages) within 5 minutes of booting. The various messages indicate it might be some driver (but no indication of which), the RAM (which tests fine and works perfectly elsewhere) or the SSD (which also tests fine and works elsewhere).
Maybe your Bootcamp problems are as much about Microsoft or Intel as Apple?
BTW - I'm waiting until October for a rumored Apple Mac event. The Intel NUC may have a very short life.

Beats the Dutch user who published an article out of the blue after being a member for 5 years.

He will publish no article, before it's time.  Takes a lot of discipline.

The number will be eleven, not ten, and also not twelve, nor will he be lead into temptation by halves or decimals

It's natural prime numbers for us or nothing!

Quite the contrast with this other Dutch user, I posted an article almost 3 years before I became a member.

That's thinking ahead. But why didn't you post one 10 years before?
Well this is something to shoot for the next time you travel to the past.

There are places, like Q&A which make you think twice before trying that yourself. Some users really do have the ability to stay clear of trouble by learning from other people's example.
There are several things I stay away from and this way spare myself getting involved more than what is good for me:
- The soapbox. It's the bad part of town where you thank god don't have to go.
- Q&A, not because of some questions as most would think. These can always be ignored, but not the behavior of some people.
- Writing articles after having met a mob with torches and pitchforks in the discussion to an article that obviously went against some of the mob's religious beliefs.

Yeah, you better get in on this. It won't last much longer.
People are making millions, (well, some only make billions) right now, all just for replying to messages.
