I think the subject of this email is not really valid. WoW! now IBM is 
not doing anything and Lenovo is doing everything? Of coure not. What 
would have happend to all PC IBM Employees? Everything simply moved 
under the management of Lenovo but all the developers, creators and 
people behind the PC's and ThinkPads are still there.

I wouldn't worry at all, is the same people. "Same thing, different 
name" and not even cause it still says IBM. ;-)
