Shameful confession: I like the Lenovo computer

1. The new Macbooks, Mac Minis, and other M2-based computers are the best personal computers out there right now. I recommend this review of the last Mac Mini with M2 Pro. The performance and price of the Mac Mini are convincing. M2-based Macbook Airs are amazing, have long battery life, and are faster than any Intel-based laptop.
2. Since I already established the baseline: Apple computers with new M processors are the best on the market. I can easily move on to describe the computer that captivated me with its strangeness.
3. The Lenovo Yoga Book 9i looks like a laptop from the future. If I was buying a laptop with Windows, I would want this one.
4. This laptop is weird. It has two touch screens and a keyboard that can be detached from the screen.
5. Two screens mean that we can build a fortress out of this laptop, have one screen at the top, the other at the bottom and display something different on both, like on two monitors.
6. Being able to display two windows at once on a laptop seems very useful to me. I spend most of my time working on an iMac. Its main advantage, compared to a laptop, is the ability to display two browser windows on one screen.
7. To achieve this effect on a laptop, I’d need an additional monitor. The Yoga Book 9i solves this problem with a bold design.
8. The Yoga Book can also be used as a regular laptop with an on-screen or physical keyboard. This modularity and diversity within one device (set?) captivated me. This is a contradiction of the uniform and closed design of Macbooks.
9. The form of the laptop from Lenovo, despite its strangeness, seems very useful to me.
10. I also like the design of this laptop. It's authentic and fresh. The hinge between the screens is clear, the top of the screen is uneven. This computer is weird and it's not ashamed of it.
11. I quietly hope that it will be a sales hit and it will force Apple to copy the design.
