Clad in hand-stitched, saddle-grade premium French leather, each Lenovo ThinkPad Reserve Edition notebook is individually numbered and comes with live, round-the-clock executive-class service and support. Each ThinkPad Reserve user is provided access to dedicated, specially-trained Executive Support staff, available at the touch of a button, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to support every aspect of the ThinkPad Reserve Edition computing experience.
"My ThinkPad Reserve Edition provides exceptional functionality, style and service to support my personal and professional agenda at any time and in any location," said Rich Fennessy, President and CEO of Insight Enterprises, a leading IT solutions company with locations in 22 countries across the world. "If my computer freezes while waiting for my flight in Heathrow or a document becomes corrupted in a Beijing conference room, Lenovo will provide me immediate, personalized assistance and a solution no matter what it takes."
ThinkPad Reserve Edition customers are provided with an Executive Welcome Service that begins with an initial one-on-one setup call between the customer and his or her dedicated Executive Support staff specialist. This support specialist helps ensure that the computer is set up to accommodate the personal preferences of each individual user. The Executive Support staff specialist accompanies the customer throughout the lifecycle of his or her ThinkPad Reserve Edition notebook PC, and handles everything the customer needs to get their PC up and running and to keep it that way.
For ongoing support, each owner is provided concierge phone access to the Executive Support staff, with all calls answered within four rings in the owner's native language. Or the owner can press the ThinkVantage button on the keyboard and get a live electronic-chat connection to their support expert, who can also address needs through remote management of the computer as desired. If needed, a specially-trained technician will be at a customer's location within four hours in 20 countries, and will even condition the leather exterior before departing. In the case of accidental loss, replacement machines will be shipped overnight, free of charge.
"The ThinkPad Reserve Edition was designed for the world's most accomplished professionals, so it delivers the best ownership experience available. It combines expert personalized service, exquisite design and materials, and superior technology to surpass any notebook PC available today," said Craig Merrigan, vice president of Branding and Strategy, Lenovo. "While only 5,000 ThinkPads will offer 'Reserve' status, this offering demonstrates Lenovo's leadership the PC industry in delivering innovative design, technology, and services across all our offerings."
