Lenovo was founded in Beijing in 1984 by 11 free-thinking researchers with $25,000 from a science academy. It markets PCs for every possible customer, from the top-of-the-line Pentium speedster to $300 bare-bones desktops. The growth potential for Lenovo in its home market appears limitless. IDC forecasts that PC sales in China will jump 57% from 2006 to 2010, to 36 million units. The U.S. market will reach 68 million units...

...this particular case, De Kort's lack of tech savvy works for him - a flashy presentation of his bare-bones case would make his video look like a PR tool rather than an earnest documentary. And his mere presence makes the video more immediate than a faceless blog entry would be - it's an original production, not a series of cut and pasted snippets from elsewhere...
