Is IBM part of Lenovo now or only the personal computer division?
Lenovo had been banned by the US State Department due to its back doors.
How about IBM products too?
I read news about both IBM and Lenono had been banned, is that true?

Lenovo bought the IBM PC division. IBM has nothing to do with it now. I would be careful buying Lenovo. Lenovo has serious stand behind their product problems. They bought IBM PC division and proceeded to drive the quality of the system into the ground. Their customer service is well below par. They even makes Dell customer service look good. Lenovo will not allow people to read instruction on how to access the BIOS menu or to get info on their puters on their web site unless you connect to them thru Facebook. They do this so they can spy on their users. The last and final thing to remember about them is they are a Chinese Government own company. It is up to you if you want to trust them.
You get what you pay for. Systems with high end parts with low prices are to be viewed with suspicion. They have to cut corners somewhere to get the price down.
What cost you less today is going to cost you more tomorrow.

IBM is the parent company of Lenovo. Now in days IBM mainly creates servers but makes a few business computers. I have heard that Lenovo is banned but I would think that IBM would be banned as well because of their relations.
