A couple of years ago I registered my A20p with IBM, there used to be a page where you input your data and IBM will send you an email when an update of drivers was on place.

There are places where you look at your warranty, parts lookup... but I can´t find where I can register it with my name...

Is there a link where you can register the ThinkPad now?

i dont know for sure but i think u dont have to register your machine with IBM.
Now all u have to do for look at your warranty, parts lookup and update of drivers is Access IBM.
Just press one button and all is clear-thats what i do.

krissto is correct. No registration has ever been necessary, and IBM dumped the really useful personalized pages and e-mails a while back.

thanks to both!.

Yes before it used to be a page for registration. I barely ever register with any company either, but with IBM I used to do an exception... not just beacuse of the emails with updates of drivers but rather because it was a proof of ownership if the laptop gets stolen...

thanks again.

The new ThinkPad Software Installer will check their website for updates (instead of making you look for updates, then extract them, then running the installer).

Looks like a lot of updates were released in mid-February.
