Any current ThinkPads available with XP preinstalled?

#1 Post by Edward Mendelson » Sat Jul 03, 2010 10:42 am

Are any current (summer 2010) ThinkPad models available with an option to have Windows XP preinstalled? Lenovo offers XP as an option on a lot of its desktop models, but I haven't seen any ThinkPad models that still have XP as an option. But maybe I've missed something. I'll be grateful for any information. Thanks.

Ed, you might want to give Lenovo sales a call and ask. Personally I don't recall seeing an XP option recently. Lenovo is big on their "Windows 7 Lenovo Enhanced Experience" these days ...

Good idea - will do next week (after the Fifth of July) - and report back if anything's available.

It turns out that quite a few ThinkPad series are still available with XP: the X201 and X301, the T410 and T510, the W510, the L512, and others.
