If you buy this and get stopped at airport security, you deserve a full cavity search.

Lenovo crowdfunding?

Just like videogame preorders, why invest when you can get dumbasses to fund the risk for you?

Airport security is gonna stop you for any bullshit anyway. I once got delayed because of 2 razorblades and had them taken away. I guess they wanted to make sure I wasn't gonna highjack the plane with a 1 inch blade that you can snap with your fingers.

I'm pretty sure that's how planes have been hijacked historically. It was a 1 inch blade that you can snap with your fingers.
