Currently, if you want a custom configured Lenovo PC, you have to wait for it to be shipped from China. This increases the average time it takes to get the computer and introduces the risk of a customs problem holding up your shipment indefinitely.



I didn't think that larger exporting companies had problems with customs in China. Even so, wouldn't it be better to take advantage of your infrastructure and distribution already existing in Mexico?


I know nothing about logistics, but I've ordered a fair amount of hardware from Lenovo and one of my biggest complaints is the erratic shipping times.


Apple consistently ship from China to US in 2 days, presumably Lenovo should be able to do the same.


That's a fair counterpoint. Lenovo takes considerably longer. I don't know why.
