You'd be suprised at what some on the help desks may tell you. This is the first I've heard of the above.
Same here.
However, IBM did get out of the ThinkPad business a year ago, so perhaps you were talking to the wrong company. I've noticed that a lot of the IBM ThinkPad & PC links now go to Lenovo.
There seems to be a period of handing-over right now - when you ask for support, the request is handed straight back to IBM.
As for "IBM downed support Linux", that directly contradicts what I saw at a Linux conference last week. IBM had several presentations about their moving to Linux in many areas.
That's what I thought too - which is why I found that helpdesk answer so odd. /Per Jessen, Zürich
