IBM Think

IBM Think

Think is a motto coined by Thomas J. Watson while managing the sales and advertising departments at the National Cash Register Company, saying "Thought has been the father of every advance since time began. 'I didn't think' has cost the world millions of dollars." In 1914 he brought the motto with him to CTR, which later became IBM.

IBM recently rebranded its desktops, notebooks and displays and brought them under the Think umbrella. This trademark and all associated products have been licensed to Lenovo.

IBM's Think family of offerings now includes ThinkPad notebooks, ThinkCentre desktops, ThinkVision visuals, and options and services - ThinkAccessories and ThinkServices.
