Lenovo also seems to be switching to the Apple layout:

Almost all the historic F-key mappings have an alternative CTRL+key or
ALT+key mapping in modern HIGs. Keys to control laptop volume and
brightness are accessed much more frequently, so it's foreseeable that
over time they will supplant the F-keys in PC keyboards.
