I hope it will have retro-level screen quality (i.e. best in class).

(And, put those, at least as a consistent option, into the rest of your professional line, Lenovo. Really, it's become ridiculous, at this point.)

I really hope there will be no component/FRU lottery. I'd rather wait for the best part than worry whether I'll get the good LCD or the one that's washed out or with banding, perceptible PWM flicker, image-burn, you name it. Rather know I'm getting the right keyboard, than worry about squish, roll, etc. affecting my typing. Etc.

I hope not. Except for a few choice models (the T4-T6 era "FlexView" IPS panels), the screens in ThinkPads have not been exceptional at all. Even the IPS choices were a total lottery.
Good point. I guess I'm influenced by the ones that were good.

Make it a damned good panel, Lenovo.

How do we interact with our machines? Display, keyboard, trackpad, Touchpoint. If those are second class, our whole experience is going to be second class.

(Speakers, I can always plug in or hook up. And I don't use the webcam much; that may differ for others.)
