Video of how IBM/Lenovo specifically stress-tests the Thinkpad line by
mechanically opening and closing the lid thousands of times by lifting
it only by one corner:

Another ugly one here testing the screen:

I've actually been wondering about this, since I carry my T61p in a
LowePro backpack.
What is the long-term effect of it riding on my non-linear back when I
carry it to work and back on the subways? Am I slowly "curving" the
laptop? Should I put some sort of rigid material in there to stop it
from being subject to that?
