Write the text, highlight it, hit the URL button. Put an equal sign after the "[url" and paste the address.

Or did you want something more automated?

I may be one of those angry people. :(

I think getting our S10s and more people will make this forum better. :D

Any plans of a sticky or a wiki once we get some concrete details as to the specifications or any specific install instructions?

I know MSIWind.net has a wiki section and it'd be helpful (I think) once the first run is delivered.

+1

However, I agree waiting until we know the details are accurate is wise, so that bogus info isn't put up. Lenovo excels at that, so we don't need to compete in that area. :D

True, but the idea is that it can be updated or kept accurate as the information comes.

Or in this case, misinformation! I have never seen such a display of smoke and mirrors from a supposedly-reputable manufacturer. C'mon Lenovo, you're better than this.

I'm in total agreement. I just don't get why it's so hard for these manufacturers to fess up. Maybe it's a Chinese thing about saving face? In any case, the one's who are reaping the benefits of this messiness are Asus and to a lesser degree, MSI and Acer.
It would appear that a lot of these people, including the heavies like Intel, have been caught with their pants down...not having anticipated the huge market demand that has been created. They are all rushing around trying to catch up and outdo each other and not doing a very good job of it.

i almost disagree, those companies may be getting a small boost from this. i believe lenovo is the real winner. my opinion on the matter is that lenovo intentionally put out the orders early to stop consumers from buying the other brands. they were losing all the early adopters. know they are sold out meaning they hit their sales target before they are even available. now i imagine they are dreaming up emails to keep you hanging on to your order. lenovo was losing too many sales, now they are all locked in.
