The content of Lenovo ThinkPad Stack was merged into ThinkPad on April 1, 2024. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. For the discussion at that location, see its talk page.

Thinkpad TransNote and possible solution to avoid listing all models

This is another notable model that is unique for its time. See http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:TransNote It should be in the list for historical purposes.

I am mentioning it here instead of adding it to the page because of the concern that the page is turning into a product brochure.

We could summarise all the models under production lines. Each with a couple of sentences describing its unique positioning, followed by notable models as needed (but not list all models.) If particular models are noteworthy they can be described in a separate article where detail technical specifications can be shown.

Eg:

T Series (2000-current)

Mainstream business and performance line with user-upgradeable and serviceable components and larger batteries.

T Series with "s" suffix (2000-current)

Thinner and lighter variants of the T models with less RAM and smaller batteries.

T Series with "p" suffix (2000-current)

Professional variants of the T models with more powerful CPUs, higher capacity memory and storage, and discrete GPUs.

Proposed merge of Lenovo ThinkPad Stack into ThinkPad#ThinkPad Stack (2015–current)

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was Merge. TRL (talk) 22:53, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This already seems to include all the relevant information, and I don't see a need to break this up into a separate article. 1234qwer 1234qwer 4 00:10, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I think this computer is notable and it could be expanded a bit more. I would like to have more ThinkPad series to be separate and have the main ThinkPad article a bit trimmed down in the future. PhotographyEdits (talk) 12:45, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support merge on the grounds of short text, overlap and context. The two sentence at Lenovo ThinkPad Stack are entirely redundant given the better-developed ThinkPad#ThinkPad Stack (2015–current). Klbrain (talk) 06:40, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Lenovo not only makes ThinkPads and IdeaPads

""Lenovo laptop" redirects here. For other uses, see IdeaPad." Lenovo also makes Legion laptops, Yoga, ThinkBook..... Luhanopi (talk) 07:40, 23 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

V-Series

I just stumbled on a V130, and there seems to be a series of V-machines. Can this be mentioned?
