Hi you all, I just found this cool IBM Thinkpad laptop in someones trash pile on the corner of their driveway. It boosts a 486 50mhz processor and 11mbs of ram, with 8mb on a pcmica card. Plus a whopping 9 inch B/W screen. I loaded dos 6.22 and win 3.1 on it and it flys. For some strange reason I can't find the model number anywhere on this computer, maybe you know by looking at this pic. http://home.att.net/~tech230/IBM_Thinkpad.jpg

there's usually a label on the bottom of thinkpads with a 7-digit alphanumeric number or code (4 digits - 3 digits, for example 9546-3au) which will help you determine the exact model. it sounds like a thinkpad 360, if that gives you a start.
