I won't do business with Lenovo after running into multiple BIOS soft locks. The first, I was attempting to install a WiMaX card into some random laptop, and the last Thinkpad I had was BIOS locked to only be able to accept the 80GB HDD that it came with. It would have been so snappy with an SSD! It has been three years now that I refuse to purchase any products from the company and six years since I ran into their first BIOS soft lock. I was yelling about it back then, but nobody gave a shit.

BIOS IS DEAD! AND YOU HAVE KILLED IT!
