Buying an Lenovo Laptop

California State University Los Angeles has tested and configured ThinkPad laptops for use as "secure" laptops.   ThinkPads have been the leader in incorporating fingerprint readers with the Client Security Solution for years.  Users can authenticate with unique fingerprints instead of copious passwords.   Also, desktop administrators, with the help of this technology, can implement strong security policies, protecting sensitive and confidential data contained within.

For University purchases which need secure computing, ITS suggests one of three Lenovo models:

  • X61 (an ultra-light. Click here for applicable Lenovo web page)
  • T61 (a standard weight. Click here for applicable Lenovo web page)
  • X61T (an ultra-light tablet. Click here for applicable Lenovo web page)
