Not even a hint of an admission on the certificate issue, I'm not surprised. If they admit they knew about the root certificate or even acknowledge its existence after the discovery, they could open themselves up to legal liability if someone's bank account or identity is compromised.

This really sucks because I used to recommend Lenovo workstations and ThinkPad laptops to people; it really is good hardware at a decent price. I know this certificate/spyware issue was only on the consumer side, but it stains their entire reputation as far as I'm concerned. When my wife's Lenovo IdeaPad finally dies, we're not going to get another Lenovo like we planned.
