Hi,
I am looking into getting the 'All IBM Laptop', meaning an IBM Thinkpad, IBM OS and soforth.
What I ask is what is the ideal IBM Thinkpad for OS/2 Warp 4. I would like it to come with the OS preinstalled, but this inst necessary. It needs to be old (pentium 1) and have a colour screen.
I have heard good thinks about the IBM Thinkpad 710, would it be advisable?

Look at the Device Driver Pack on-line, with the section systems. There all ThinkPads and the appropriate drivers are listed. Normally, OS/2 should have to install on ALL IBM thinkpads.
