    The white logo of Thinkpad looks ugly to me. I wish Lenovo make it more colorful like the IBM tricolor before. I'm sure it will boost the Thinkpad sales. How much effort does it take, how much more money they can make :rolleyes:

    I actually like the new logo - it's clean and simple. The old IBM one was good too, I don't really mind. But the T61 logos, which also included the series letter, was a bit too cluttered for my liking.

    If Lenovo did the IBM tricolor, maybe somebody still think about IBM.

    I like the black classic color of Thinkpad. I'd like the logo to be more colorful. It doesn't have to be the same tricolor as IBM. Can't Lenovo be more creative? :confused:
