Lenovo just went through this with certain Thinkpad Laptop users. After a lot of complaints/suggestions, tt all started here when Design Matters posted a poll: http://lenovoblogs.com/designmatters/?p=1932 Then a follow up to the poll, where Lenovo states they are considering a BIOS switch option: http://lenovoblogs.com/yamato/?p=453&language=en Then finally, your company, Lenovo decided that the overwhelming support for a switch option had enough merit to implement the fix in an updated BIOS: http://lenovoblogs.com/yamato/?p=518&language=en There is already a one-man, independent party that has come out with modded-BIOS' for many many Lenovo models. Using this will void your warranty. If one guy, who isn't getting paid for it can accomplish this in his free time, I'm sure Lenovo can put together an official solution with relative ease, ESPECIALLY since they have already done so for some Lenovo Models.
