The Lenovo ThinkPad 25th Anniversary Edition comes as the latest laptop under the brand name that has been created with the original unit in mind to pay homage to how it has changed the face of computing.
The ThinkPad is arguably one of the most iconic Windows PCs to ever hit the market, so the black, boxy design of the unit is celebrated with this new model that is instantly recognizable. The laptop retains the same seven-row keyboard, the red TrackPoint cursor and even the blue enter key.
The celebratory Lenovo ThinkPad 25th Anniversary Edition might look similar to the original but boasts tech specs that match the needs for users of today including SSD storage, a Full HD display and all-day battery light.
