    Warranty Status
    The link below allows you to look up the warranty status of your ThinkPad notebook. ThinkPad warranties are different than most other notebooks. They follow the machine, not the buyer. No registration or proof of purchase is ever necessary. If you sell your ThinkPad, there is no need to transfer the warranty. Machine type and serial number are required to look it up:
