I can't quite remember, unfortunately. What I know for sure is it's possible to buy a Thinkpad with MS-DOS (which is cheaper) and then install Linux or whatever OS you want.
If I'm not mistaken, the user I was referring to said something about contacting Lenovo and providing them with the Thinkpad build that you wish but asking not to include an OS. I can ask for you if they do something like that. I still have the email of the person that I spoke to three or four years ago when I had some problems when customizing my Thinkpad, and she was extremely nice.

- farresito 12y agoHello! Hopefully you have not forgotten about this. I sent an email yesterday and got answered today. This is what the rep told me: > Unfortunately we no longer offer our laptops without an OS. We do get the operating systems at a discounted price so I can see what I could do as far as pricing on a new system for him. If there is a specific configuration you had in mind that would be perfect! That way I can see what the pricing would be with me. Let me know if you are interested on more info or what me to forward you to her.
