Lenovo != Linux ?
Category
Just when I'm ready to plunk down some money for a new laptop, Lenovo has mysteriously stopped including a choice for Linux (in their case, it has been SuSE). There has not been any news announcements, and no one has been leaking out-of-channel gossip. But, looking over the IdeaPad and all the ThinkPad options, no one would ever suspect that there had ever been any other choice than Microsoft. The question is even showing up on Lenovo's support forums.
For several years, I've thought the T61 series was a best-buy for a business laptop that could support Linux and Windows. Now, I'm rethinking my allegiance to Lenovo and looking hard at Dell.
