Which Thinkpads come or came with Windows 7 OEM DVD / CD ? Which would be good for fresh clean install without any Thinkvantage etc stuff..
Does such a thing even exist in the IBM / Lenovo Thinkpad world?
Or do they all come only with the System Restore DVDs / CDs (just like T6x / X6x) ?
I have 3/4 HP & Dell machines that came with the Win XP / Vista OEM CDs.

It did exist as part of the limited time Update program available for qualifying purchases around the time Win 7 launched... but that time limit is now long past, so it is no longer available from Lenovo.crashnburn wrote:Does such a thing even exist in the IBM / Lenovo Thinkpad world?
The HP 6910p I am provided with by my current client came with a tailored install VISTA CD, similar to a Lenovo Factory Recovery set, not a Windows OEM set.crashnburn wrote:I have 3/4 HP & Dell machines that came with the Win XP / Vista OEM CDs.

Gotcha. What time period was this and what models was this available on?bill bolton wrote: It did exist as part of the limited time Update program available for qualifying purchases around the time Win 7 launched... but that time limit is now long past, so it is no longer available from Lenovo.

Was this for models that had already sold with Vista very recent to pre-Win7 launch and "qualified" for FREE Win 7 updates?
