Lenovo to auction Olympic laptops for charity

Filed under:

In celebration of the “one-year-out mark for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games,” Lenovo has just announced that it will be conducting a series of back-to-back, week-long auctions to gift high bidders with its svelte Olympic-themed machine. Beginning on February 8, 2008, a “Cloud of Promise” laptop will be available for bidding each week leading up to the Olympic Games, and a number of them will even be “autographed by athlete ambassadors.” Reportedly, “100-percent” of the proceeds will be distributed through the Lenovo Hope Fund to select philanthropies, including Right to Play, and the auctions will take place at the currently unavailable www.lenovohopefundauctions.com website.
