Lenovo is a multinational computer technology company which has its headquarters in Beijing, China. Its principal operations are also located in Morrisville, North Carolina in the United States and Singapore as well. Initially known as Legend, Lenovo acquired the former IBM PC Company Division which marketed the ThinkPad line of notebook PCs in 2005. It derived is name from a portmanteau of “Le” (from its previous name, Legend) and “novo” which is the Latin ablative for “new”. The company had to change its name because it conflicted with other trademarks registered in the West. Lenovo currently has the license to sell IBM-branded desktops and laptops until 2010. Among some of its products marketed around the world include Lenovo ThinkCentre desktops, Lenovo ThinkPad laptops and tablets, Lenovo ThinkStation workstations, Lenovo ThinkServer servers, IdeaCentre desktops, IdeaPad consumer-oriented laptops, Lenovo 3300 J Series desktops, Lenovo 3000 C, N and V Series laptops, LCD and CRT monitors, as well as ThinkVision projectors and monitors.
