Nobody thinks that this is because this is the time that mom is needed at home to take the kids out on the regular day to day stuff. school, work, sports, friends, etc.?

I do not own a lenovo but that may be my next laptop. Great parts and long life are the most important with battery being next.

Right now I have a white macbook which I do CLI Linux development and XCode development. And i could do windows development too i guess...

I think the mac is the best but a lenovo would be very enticing to me because there would actually be a point to installing Linux on it. (OSX is built on BSD)

So choose what you want to develop and choose a laptop.

Always keep in mind the battery life.
