Lenovo has agreed to
sell its ThinkPad notebooks and new Lenovo 3000 series PCs
at Best Buy, in the company's largest move into the U.S.
retail market since it acquired IBM's PC business, CNET
News.com has learned.
The companies are
expected to announce the deal Tuesday morning, sources
familiar with the plans said. Lenovo already sells some PCs
at Office Depot, but Best Buy is North America's largest
retailer and the most consumer-oriented channel that a
ThinkPad has seen in many years.
