Thanks to all for your suggestions. I picked up a decent used T41 & am going to wipe/reload the OS, etc this weekend. 1.6 Ghz, one gig of ram and a nice clear display. Battery stayed up 1.5 hours at idle last night, so I might have to look for one eventually.
Do you recommend I load the hard drive shock absorber software? It showed alert pop-ups when the unit was simply sitting on a desktop last night going through testing. Though I have a recovery set, I thought it's better to load XP SP3, then add the proper drivers & leave some of the third-ware off. All advice welcome. Matt Note to D.R. I checked about the 'clickety-clack' issue; one instructor asked "How quiet?" & I told him "Thinkpad". Trackpoint & silent mouse clicks. Reply - "That will be nice." _______________________________________________ Thinkpad mailing list [email protected] http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad
