Does anyone know anything about Lenovo laptops?
I have a chance to buy a new one from a reliable local company, 15 inch 
screen, 2.8GHz, 128bit,  200 GB at 7200 rpm, Windows XP installed at 
aroind $2,200, 3 year warrenty.

What do you think?

Lenova used to be IBM's PC business. What I had heard about it was that a 
Chinese company bought out the PC business from IBM (which I think is both odd 
and sad being that the original PC was IBM's invention) and they used the 
name Lenovo for the new venture. That was a bit annoying to me, because I was 
using an IBM PC and an IBM 21-inch monitor at the time and wanted to go IBM 
again, but did not want to go with this new Chinese company. That is one of the 
reasons I kept my old PC too long.  
 
I have been very happy with the Dell XPS 630 I bought at the end of July. The 
support has been so good that I expect to stay with Dell as long as possible, 
assuming they do not slide.

Ahhh, those ubiquitous Mexican computers, [North] American made -- Dell.

Lenovo has been around for many years, both the company and the name, was
the Asian manufacturer and distributor for IBM.  Publicly, IBM said it
wanted to spin off the laptops or PCs generally to generate capital, Lenovo
was there to do it, already familiar not only with PCs but the IBM
enterprise as well.

Every table had an argument going.
