    I'm about to buy a ThinPad Edge E420 from provantage ( http://www.provantage.com). However, I'm not sure how I can make sure the warranty will work here in Finland, or how I can make sure I'm getting a warranty.

    Does anybody have experience with shopping for laptops online and warranty issues?

    Thanks in advance,

    Valmancer

    I apparently shouldn't have advertised Provantage at all. They apparently only ship thinkpads inside the US even though they advertise as a international company.

    irony, I just clicked your link and "...can't find the server at www.provantage.com" :)
