... which means nothing of consequence, considering that as we know 
thinkpads still get to use the IBM name for a period of time. The top of 
the page says Lenovo and the look-and-feel of the site is clearly no 
longer IBM's (no blue), yet the copyright at the bottom says IBM. So 
what? Let's cut some slack during what is still very much a transition 
process; Lenovo has barely been able to make its mark on its new 
acquisition.

It's hardly a killer question; indeed, it's a technical rather than a 
political/policy one. To find the page myself, I had to do the horribly 
difficult chore of googling "lenovo linux"; it's not the first time that 
I've found Google's search capabilities to surpass those of the sites 
themselves.
