We have been using IMB/Lenovo's for about 4 years now and we have had only one DOA and two or three that we had to call in for service with in the first year.  Unlike my previous employer, who are still ordering Dell and still maintaining a 30% or so failure rate and about a 25% DOA rate.  I have been throughly impressed with our IBM/Lenovo systems and their quality.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[zargon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 30th 2008 7:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo's ThinkCentre M58 / M58p desktops keep the green scheme alive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</guid><description><![CDATA["Whether you like the design or not, it cannot be denied that these PCs are rock solid."<br><br>I can deny it. The school I worked at got 12 on a grant. They were awful. They looked hideous, the case felt cheap and "wobbly" (best word I can think of), for some reason their design sucked in about 50% more dust than any other PCs in the district, and two of them outright failed and had to be sent back for replacement parts (one of which turned out to be the entire motherboard).<br><br>No. Thanks. I like Lenovo and I do believe them to be a reliable brand, but the ThinkCentre line is total schwa and in desperate need of an overhaul.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Atropos]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 30th 2008 7:42AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo's ThinkCentre M58 / M58p desktops keep the green scheme alive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</guid><description><![CDATA[It is really too bad that you had an issue with two out of the 12 ThinkCentres that you got.  However, we have been ordering around 750 new ThinkCentres every year for the past 3 years with the failure rated that I stated in my previous comment.  Even all our vendors have said that IBM/Lenovo have one of the lowest failure rate they have seen, so you are going have to forgive me if I completely dismiss your claim due to lack of real data.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[zargon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 30th 2008 8:31AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo's ThinkCentre M58 / M58p desktops keep the green scheme alive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</guid><description><![CDATA[lol, oh I guess my figures are off.

Our school purchased hundreds of Dells - exclusively - and very very few were busted.<br><br>Maybe if your former employer was located atop a mountain Tibet and the PCs had to be carried their by donkeys those numbers would be close, but other than that, no. I'm sure you're going to come back and tell me about how you've ordered 10 Dells for your house and 3 of them were broken or that you ordered three million Lenovos for some enormous business mogul and all of them worked, so I'll just end my comments here.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Atropos]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 30th 2008 10:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo's ThinkCentre M58 / M58p desktops keep the green scheme alive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</guid><description><![CDATA[Does it have MMX and a 3DFX Voodoo graphics card, cos if it doesn't then i ain't interested.<br><br>I wanna run Quake 2 at 30fps with COLOURED LIGHTING!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Scotty Doo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 30th 2008 7:15AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo's ThinkCentre M58 / M58p desktops keep the green scheme alive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</guid><description><![CDATA[3DFX smoked Quake II. 60fps!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Atropos]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 30th 2008 7:42AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo's ThinkCentre M58 / M58p desktops keep the green scheme alive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/lenovos-thinkcentre-m58-m58p-desktops-keep-the-green-scheme-a/</guid><description><![CDATA[$500 or $900 dollars just to be green?
