Ummm, my New Lenovo T61, I got a 8 weeks ago, came with XP. I
specifically ordered it with it.

I am now running Debian Sid, mostly. I have OSX Tiger ready to install.

Triple booting, (actually QUAD). 

The ThinkVantage, Windows XP, Debian SID and (soon) OSX.

Lenovo is really a nice platform. Its flexible. Doable and willing to
take anything you've got to throw at it.

Just for the Record, Lenovo has long been recommending Windows XP.

Vista just hasn't sat right with them. 

And to be really honest, its really why I bought it and almost bought a
Dell, but they weren't offering the machine I wanted with XP.
