    No, I think it's normally open only to people who have an ID code. I could be wrong though.

    Great link. So, as a regular client can you really finish the order and buy a Lenovo from EPP? I mean, aren't they asking for some info or smth to prove you're an employee? I can simply confiure a laptop, order it and get it, from that link, just like that? It would be awesome!

    The only problem is that you cannot return your purchase if you change your mind!

    Are you sure I won't have any problems ordering it through EPP if I'm not an actual employee? If only a theoretical return would be impossible it's fine by me. I wanna take it overseas anyway.

    Uhh I doubt Lenovo will let just anyone use their EPP. After all, there is a reason why they have separate pages. Call me skeptical but I wouldn't use that link since the source is unknown.
