IBM Thinkpad 600

[Travis Roy]

Hah, I just got one recently.. the little trackpoint thing was broken and I
have a new keyboard on the way..

Anyway.. Thinkpads are very linux friendly. The nice thing about the 600 is
that it has 3 buttons making X that much better.

One thing to remember.. do NOT use lmsensors on a thinkpad EVER.. there's
some wacky thing where it can wipe out your eeprom basically killing the
laptop.

Hi all - I have a friend who's considering getting an IBM Thinkpad 600
to play with linux.  Anybody have experience with one with linux?  Good
or bad?

Thanks in advance.
