So the result is... three notebooks with the same processor and SSD capacity as the MBP, two of which also max out at 16GB?

I mean – the "reasoning" at the start is:

    With every passing year, the latest and the greatest in
    software is becoming more CPU hungry and memory intensive. 
   Therefore, it is important to have at least 16 GB memory 
   and the latest processors in my machine.
But it appears the real differences are simply price[0] and his preference for cheap plastic housings?

Also:

    Lenovo has a long tradition of making laptops that last
    for many years. Their ThinkPad flagship line of laptops
    is targeted at developers and business users and has a 
    cult following among this user base.
No. IBM had a long history. Lenovo has a long history of preinstalling crapware, and making enough money off it to buy the Thinkpad line.

    Made for professionals on the go...
Oh! This is a Lenovo PR effort. Sorry for disturbing, please move on.

[0]: Possibly. Considering the whole article boils down to nothing but price, it's surprisingly laking any information about the prices
