Celebrity actor and current "Two and a Half Men" star Ashton Kutcher recently accepted a job with tech giant Lenovo. Kutcher claims to be a long time tech junkie and has invested much of his personal wealth in tech companies and other tech startups. He promises that this move by Lenovo is not just a celebrity marketing move, but a strong business decision on both ends.
Kutcher spoke with ABCNews.com about his new position at Lenovo. He said, "I was looking for a company that was building mobile devices that I could work with. I was also looking for a company that was willing to take risks and wasn't making 'me too' devices. It's a dual faceted role. I will be helping do some marketing with the company but also working with the R&D teams. I'm actually heading to Beijing tonight and I am going to be working for the rest of the week with the R&D team there. It is a relatively new relationship, we have been working with each other for a couple weeks. My first job is to learn as much as I can and to really spend a lot of time with the products. I am going to gain insight and then try to apply some of the things I know about consumer software and technology to the hardware devices."
Kutcher claims that he had a change of heart about Apple VS Android products. The actor used to only use Apple products for his day to day devices, but now he says he's slowly switched over to Android.
Take a look at Kutcher's Lenovo promo video, and be on the lookout for more devices designed with his help.
