If you thought Lenovo’s new Thinkpads were the extent of their CES Announcements, think again. The company had a separate cache on tap of goodies for the consumer market. Making it to the North American market are new tablets, laptops, convertibles, and all-in-one desktops. Let’s take a quick peak.
