I quote
"Lenovo actually plans to support Linux on its ThinkPads starting in the 
third quarter, in partnership with Novell, Godin said. Customers of the 
recently introduced Lenovo 3000 units still won't have a preloaded 
option, however, because the small and midsize business customers that 
are the targets for those units have many different requirements, he 
said.

Chinese customers of Lenovo will still be able to buy PCs with Red Flag, 
the Linux distribution backed by the Chinese government, said Grant 
Shenk, who works in Lenovo's worldwide software marketing group."
I bet nobody want their lenovo 3000 anyway.
