    Searching to buy a w701ds but..

    This product is no longer available for purchase on lenovo.com nor in the lenove outlet store.

    Anybody knows why is that? Does lenovo withdraw this model? Will lenovo replace this model soon?

    Unfortunately, Lenovo no longer makes 17" workstation models and has no plans in the immediate future to do so.

    The best bet to get a W701ds is to try ebay or craglist or even outlet.lenovo.com (if you are in USA).

    The W7x0 series has completely disappearing off the roadmap signaling Lenovo's exit of the massive 17" mobile workstation market.

    As lead_org has stated, you can get them on Ebay or locally.
