Raise your game, Lenovo

I bought a new Lenovo Thinkpad in or around 2015 and have owned several laptops before, including HP and Acer brands. I was told that the quality and value of the Lenovo machine was very good, but I can tell you that it's not. Only after having used it for a while, have I discovered that it has all sorts of little problems with it, like: no light telling you whether caps are on, or not, so you only know once you've started typing, which can be irritating if you've typed a whole line in caps, before you notice; If there are too many wifi connections in your immediate vicinity, the machine can't tell the difference between your trusted networks and the other available connections and gets confused and has to be shut down and restarted, in order to connect to the desired network; Hard drive has started to fail one month past the expiry of the warranty period.<br> I have to ask myself if this is a bit of a joke, because ther machine seems like it should maybe only be sold in toy shops, to be used by kids under the age of 5 and not by adults who have a reasonable minimum expectation of a business machine, but although it's toyshop quality, it's not being sold at toyshop prices.
