    I saw that last night. Lenovo really knows how to price their products right. I guess they had to increase price somewhere.

    Ever heard of the saying "what goes around comes around"?

    Lenovo is probably just sick of all the whining about how
    the option Genuine Windows Vista Business - French should be
    Authentique Windows la Vista Le Commerce - Francais
