Yup, but my Thinkpad was manufactured in 2001, in the good old U.S.A. of
Mexico, or so it says on the sticker label on the back of it. It says
"Made by IBM...Manufactured in Mexico."

I imagine it is still packed with Asian chips.

Lots of those Asian / Philippine chips are made in America. The wafers are
made here and tested and shipped overseas for assembly and the final
assembly point gets the made in sticker.
