    As i was looking at my few-months-old T61, i had started screaming because what i saw was that 87% of the lid had melted (i could see the roll-cage frame inside). This was a result of an acid spill that someone had accidentally caused it. I kept looking at my T61 screaming and screaming until there's a Lenovo female staff coming and put my laptop into a big envelope ready to ship it back to the depot for repair!

    As soon as i opened my eyes, i glanced at my desk and i saw my T61 sitting there safe and sound, i realized that it's just a scary dream...i felt much better after that.

    Wow! Exactly 87% of the lid had melted? You have very accurate dreams. I wish that I could have dreams that accurate about the cute, lycra-clad young lady I see in the gym doing leg curls, but I digress...

    Hahahaha

    I like that without calling Lenovo or anything someone came to fix it immediately, and was a female lol, just by screaming. Unless your screaming lasted days hahaha.

    ha ha...it's my first dream about thinkpads! i think it's because a care a lot about it and how much time i've spent with it, therefore, it followed me into my dream. Do you guys have any feelings or connections with your favorite laptops that you're owning?
