Oh man, my first laptop, 300 ish MHz thinkpad 600 600 ish MHz thinkpad t20(ish). Man I loved that thing. Bought it with no hard drive, didn’t know about bootleg windows, so I learned Linux. DSL, in fact. Those were the days.

Edit:

I’ve been trying to remember what exactly it was, I noticed the 600 has the drive on the front but mine was definitely on the side.

Best I can tell, I think it was a T20, not a 600. They look very similar.

I’m wondering if this has anything to do with the team lead changing?

A big push in features that had been waiting on the back burner?

I don’t have any training or schooling in it, at all, I just enjoy computers since I was young 🤷‍♂️
