      Lenovo is old IBM. IBM wanted out of the PC business in 2005 to focus more on things that made better money so they sold everything to Lenovo and probably still have a percentage or something. So Lenovo got a big head start with re-branded IBM equipment and probably all the accounts for the first many years and then built upon the existing tech to start producing their own.

    FYI, Lenovo (as a computer company) is basically IBM, rebranded. They bought IBM's PC division back in the late '90s/early '00s and rebranded.
    So IBM Computers is still the top, but they are owned by/partnered with Lenovo now.

    If IBM was an office, it would be beige walls, beige filing cabinets, fluorescent lighting, blue carpet tiles, and water cooler.
