couple years ago I picked up an IBM thinkpad real cheap because it had a
corrupted M$ OS that no one could get to work right....of course I wiped
the hard drive and loaded red hat and it loaded and ran like the thinkpad
was made for Linux (maybe it was) in any case I can find no fault with the
way Red Hat at least runs on the thinkpad, have never loaded anyother OS
on it and have traveled the country and never found a need to do something
the Thinkpad couldn't handle.
