I was just trying to download a couple drivers from the Lenovo support site http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-55386 and there's nothing there to download. Anybody know anything about it? I'm in NY, 9:50 EST. thx.

It is a half-hour later and it seems to be up and running. I only tested my model, but all the drivers were there. .... JDH

Nope, definitely down! The site is running, but the download files aren't there, just a couple readme.txt files. The actual driver packages are down. :eek: I tried on several computers on several different networks and ISP's. What's up with that? Gasp!! I'm trying to set up a new machine!

The supports sites are sometimes down for maintenance over the weekend.

Lenovo (and IBM before them) seem unpreapared to do anything to resolve what is an on-going issue over many years.

Cheers,

I spoke with tech support this morning and they are having some issues with the site. The tech suggested that they expect to have the problem resolved by tomorrow , Tuesday latest. That's what I was told for what it's worth.... :)
