The ThinkPad G series was a line of desktop replacement ThinkPad laptops developed by IBM and Lenovo as partial successors to the ThinkPad A series. Positioned as a budget friendly alternative to the desktop replacement models of the T and R series with suffix 'p', the short-lived series was and still is the only ThinkPad series to use a desktop CPU (except G50). Three generations were released from when it was released in 2003 to when it was succeeded in 2006 by the ThinkPad R series.
