Lenovo is the Communist Chinese “company” that bought the PC manufacturing concern from IBM. So, buying a Lenovo is “really” supporting the Chinese.
Oh, and I forgot HP on the list of the few American companies there - but HP laptops are crap now too, so they’re right out.
IBM T30 will now handle 2 g mem. It is around 2 ghz, add a larger HD and you are set. They were made before the Chinese and can be found off lease for $300.
