Lenovo makes good stuff.
Lenova used to be IBM before IBM sold them off.
Lenovo Group Limited (SEHK: 0992, OTCBB: LNVGY) (simplified Chinese: 联
想集团有限公司; pinyin: Liánxiǎng j*tuán yǒuxi*n gōngsī) is a Chinese
multinational computer technology corporation.
We announced an agreement with Lenovo that creates a powerful new leader
in the PC industry. Lenovo will acquire IBM’s Personal Computing
Division and create a new company that will bring the strengths of IBM’s
legendary PC business together with those of Lenovo, that will employ
19,000 people and provide the widest range of PC products and
technologies to businesses, worldwide.
The agreement includes a broad-based, strategic marketing alliance under
which Lenovo will receive sales and marketing support from IBM, and
Lenovo’s products will be integrated into IBM Global Services offerings.
Important for all customers of IBM to know: IBM will provide warranty
service and support and financing and leasing options for PC products
from the new Lenovo. IBM will take an ownership stake of 18.9 percent in
Lenovo, and it will purchase PCs for its own employees from Lenovo as well.
With this agreement, Lenovo becomes the world’s third-largest PC company
and a key, strategic IBM business partner. Lenovo will have all of the
strengths of IBM’s existing PC division, including research,
development, design, and manufacturing capabilities.
