I thought IBM was bought by the Chinese last year. Lenovo or something?

No, not IBM the company, just their PC division. I'm kinda pissed that the Thinkpads were included (I hate Dell/Compac/GP/Gateway). They still make their own big iron, and chips.

The IBM PC business was. They sell them at Office Depot with the "IBM" label still on there, when it should say "PRC".
