lenovo has bought out IBM's PC business. I dont it matters though.
Most if not all laptops are made in China. Lenovo (fomerly Legend) is a huge brand in China so much so that even Dell has been unable to dislodege it from the nunmber 1 spot in China.
Lenovo has also retained much of IBM;s staff in countries where it did not have a presnese (incl India). In a similar story Haier might buy out Maytag but I dont think Maytag will be any less. Chinese cos as well as Indian cos are now globally competitieve is their practices.
BMW bought out Rover and Rolls Royce. Ford bought Jaguar. etc. Very often all that changes hands in these buyouts is the brand not much else.
That said this present generation of Thinkpads will the last with the IBM logo on them. |
