Lenovo is making downgrade from Windows Vista to Windows XP easy by providing Windows XP Recovery CD media. This is valid until July 31, 2008.
In an excerpt of their online guide:
Have a Microsoft Windows Vista Business or Microsoft Windows Ultimate system, but need to continue using Microsoft Windows XP for a while? For a limited time Lenovo is providing Windows XP Recovery CD media as a way to downgrade from Windows Vista. Lenovo customers that have Windows Vista Business or Windows Vista Ultimate “qualified systems” may purchase a Windows XP Recovery CD until July 31, 2008. Fees may vary. Please contact your local Support Center for additional details.
Notes:
“Qualified systems” are Lenovo notebook and desktop systems purchased with a Windows Vista Business or Windows Vista Ultimate preloaded operating system.
There will be a limit of one Windows XP Recovery CD set per customer, per serial number for each system series with preloaded software, including Windows Vista Business or Windows Vista Ultimate.

I have windows vista and i am not very impressed with it i cannot find any games thtat are compatible
Vista is the WORST EXCUSE for a FILE SYSTEM that I have EVER seen!
Why is this operating system being FORCED upon the public???!!!
Its as if Apple/Macintosh or linnux, or any other INCOMPATIBLE operating system, has been shoved down our throats. actually I am wrong there,.. THEIR op system doesn’t cut your systems performance IN HALF!
I was told after buying my new laptop yesterday, (even though the download site for my particular model showed every possible xp driver) that I am not even able to PURCHASE the downgrade to the superior operating system XP.
I will be returning the laptop for a full refund tomorrow mark my words!
LENOVO SUCKS! So does MICROSOFT!
Sleep well together, because you have finally opened the door, to allow everyone other op system to kick your butt.
