Iconic trio. #ThinkPadThursday #ThinkPad

A very late entry for #ThinkPadThursday, a short tour and discussion about the #ThinkPad R52. Neat machine that gave me an opportunity to talk about some stories I've collected over the years. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jy98...

David Hill ( #ThinkPad Designer ) and I were working hard the last few months to create a brand new Wikipedia page documenting some highlights of his career. Consider giving it a visit. You might learn something new! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_H...

Notes on the Lenovo Skylight: An extended look The Lenovo Skylight: A Glimpse Into a Forgotten Future The Lenovo Skylight is one of those fantastic stories I’ve been lucky enough to share on my channel. If you haven’t seen the video of me unboxing this rare, unreleased ARM laptop, check it out…

These Roland MA-8 speakers are about to turn 30 years old. They are still amazing-sounding speakers for your PC. Come learn more! www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNxQ...

Here is a short and fun comparison. Both of these laptops are used and were close to the same price in my area of the world, but they couldn't be any more different. A little showdown between a #ThinkPad and an IdeaPad. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tIv...

Working on a few projects this weekend, what about you?

Jeez. Not sure what to think about this.

Thanks to everyone on Mastodon, Twitter/X and YouTube for your suggestions on older hardware to run #Linux. I picked three #ThinkPad laptops to test how old you could go and have a decent experience. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bz5Y...

Whilst I was archiving some #IBM documents for my posterity and research, I came across these #Lenovo #ThinkPad paper models amongst the IBM/Lenovo Japan lot! You print, trim, and then assemble. I have not found other language versions. Download links in subsequent comments.

Doing some testing with Lenovo #ThinkPad's this week to see how long-lasting they are. Spoilers, they outlast Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 10. This is why I love these machines. Video to follow. #ThinkPadThursday #PC #Linux

Here is a piece of tech you don't see often anymore. "Need to copy some discs?" #retro #pc #DVD youtube.com/shorts/Mn83X...

Lenovo launches Certified Refurbished storefront For years, it's been an open secret among tech enthusiasts that a used ThinkPad is one of the best values in computing. While you may not be on the bleeding edge of technology, a pre-owned ThinkPad is often far more durable and feature-rich than a…

Question: What is the oldest #ThinkPad you've run a modern distro of #Linux on? What were the specs, and how did it go?

Happy Friday, just over here celebrating the #ThinkPad ThinkLight on an X300. You can vote in the poll as well! youtube.com/shorts/2CMrJ...

Do you need something awesome and captivating in your timeline today? Here is a shrinking #ThinkPad 701c for your enjoyment. youtube.com/shorts/fYrG3...

For the 10th anniversary of #ThinkPad, #IBM Japan released a 65% scale model kit of one of the most iconic computers ever built: the ThinkPad 701c. Today, let's build one of those kits and talk about this amazing portable computer. #ThinkPadThursday www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqQR...

Even though #Lenovo has listed its foldable PCs as withdrawn and no longer being manufactured, there are clues that the story is far from over for the foldable PC. #ThinkPad laptopretrospective.com/laptops/a-ch...

Do you need a big briefcase server? This beast was $5000 when it was released in 2014 and packs quite a punch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8Sj...

Thanks to @harrymccracken.com in his article for @fastcompany.com for mentioning my "excellent documentary" on the #ThinkPad 701c. www.fastcompany.com/91356463/ibm...

What is old is new again. Lenovo China announces a white #ThinkPad exclusively for the Chinese market. laptopretrospective.com/laptops/the-...

For #ThinkPadThursday, I am prepping my film space with new lights and new audio before filming the assembly of this wonderful model kit. These were released exclusively in Japan for the 10th anniversary of #ThinkPad.

Fun Fact: There are currently 10 articles in draft stage on the laptopretrospective.com website. They are in various states of completion: some need some additional work, some need to wait for the right time, some might ultimately see the trash cash.

A day late for #ThinkPadThursday, I got caught up in other things. Here is a list of the Top 5 #ThinkPad Laptops I haven't Filmed Yet that are in my collection. www.youtube.com/watch?v=m95j...

To make a long story short, I lent this out during a conference because the room across from me needed a wireless presenter. It came back and I didn't notice until I left the conference that the receiver was absent. Now it is entirely ewaste. I need a better, serviceable solution

Wow, 8 years is a long time. Thanks for all coming along for the ride. I'm curious, what are your favourite moments?

Next week, #ThinkPadThursday turns 4 years old. How will you celebrate? Looking forward to it.

Hey all, I have acquired a pretty rare machine, but unfortunately, its functionality is very limited without this cable. If you come across this rare cable used to connect to a serial port and mobile Windows CE portable, let me know.

Just finished my morning coffee and for the first time in a while, I get to go to the film space and take inventory and choose what I film next. When you are really busy like I have been since January, so many things you would like to be able to do, just can't happen.

For #ThinkPadThursday, here is what I think you get when you cross a Lenovo #ThinkPad X1 Carbon with a P series. The X1 Extreme G1. #LenovoIN youtu.be/lHbfdltxnmc

Time to reveal the #ThinkPad X1 Extreme G1, what appears to be when you cross a P series and an X1 Carbon. This thing was impressive.

I did some light work to bring this #ThinkPad T450 back to life the other day. It could use some fresh batteries and a new SSD for its next owner.

Here is a rare #ThinkPad, the i Series S30/S31 with its Mirage Black cover! Come learn more about this unique machine and how some of its design features were nearly used again. I have it on good authority there are more stories to be told about it... youtu.be/GGT-x9aF6_s

The last ten weeks have not been exceptionally productive due to outside factors. My hope is things will begin to return to normal. There have been many projects that I've had to pause on that bummed me out. I hope to pick them up and reconnect with some people shortly.

Mobile work setup. #ThinkPad

Originally, I had only a wiki page on the M3 keypad itself, but rewatching @laptopretrospective.com's video with Tom Hardy on the L40 SX motivated me to expand it to include the M3 keyboard as well. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KK5Z...

Here is a bonus #ThinkPadThursday post and teaser. What do you get when you cross a Lenovo #ThinkPad P series with an X1 Carbon? 🤔

This isn't a pretty sight and I don't know the details but modern #ThinkPad machines can still handle a lot and still work. Wow. #ThinkPadThursday
