My HP Omnibook 6000 died yesterday.  Apparently the hard disk failed as
the Setup program shows Hard Disk [None] and pulling it out, staring at
it and reseating it didn't help, of course.

Salvage resellers are selling some refurbished IBM Thinkpad T41 and T42
notebooks on Ebay, which seem to be selling for a little more than $100
at auction.  These systems have 1.6GHz Pentium M CPUs, 512MB of RAM and
20GB or 40GB hard drives, 14-inch SVGA 1024x768 screens, CD/DVD-writers
and built-in 56K modems, ethernet NICs, etc.  Just big screen netbooks.

Is anyone running Linux successfully on one of these older IBM Thinkpad
models?  I'll be interested to hear about any experiences and problems.

Regards,
Robert
