https://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/lenovofamily/StdAffinityPortal/en_US/catalog.workflow:category.details?current-catalog-id=1A6A3D02F7AA4873976FC8168DDA8C77&current-category-id=7162ACCF009D2872F8BA28660C1EC3B5&action=init

I have no confidence that that URL will remain working, but you can
reach that page by starting from lenovo.com/friendsandfamily, clicking
Notebooks, then ThinkPad, then T Series, and then "View Models" under
the T520.

That page loads fine over http, but over https it never loads anything
below the large banner saying "widescreen portability packed with
power", and the status bar gets stuck on "Connecting to
www.lenovovision.com".
