Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga: Serious power issues

"For those that do," claims their ad. But starting one time out of ten, and terrible wake from sleep issues prevent many from actually using the thing full stop, judging by comments online on various forums. Latest BIOS, Windows updates, and drivers do not help. And neither did support. Until this issue is fixed, beware the Thinkpad Yoga!

UPDATE: Sent it back for repair (three weeks - would have been more if not for my pressure on them), and they said it was the power board, which they replaced. Now works fine. The experience left a bad taste in my mouth for this brand, however. The power board is something I suspected, as posts in several forums report same issues.

UPDATE 2: Just a month out of warranty, a vertical line appeared on the screen about 1px width running from top to bottom consistently. PC was sent to get a repair quote, and they quoted me almost the same amount to repair the screen. They did not even open the screen casing to check (I know this as I had placed a piece of tape on it across a join that was still EXACTLY in place when I got it back) - they just decided that instead of checking to see if a connector was broken, replacing the whole screen was called for. Of course, I said no repair. Poor service, poor build, and will never again buy Lenovo.

UPDATE 3: Line down screen suddenly gone!! Very happy I didn't opt to replace the screen...
