<p>Msgeek600E: Needed: older ThinkPad specs...</p> <hr /> <div>The main page of ThinkWiki is not protected, so feel free to edit it. But do it with caution - it's the primary connection to the all content of our '''ThinkWiki''' ;-)<br /> <br /> --[[User:Akw|akw]] 00:11, 25 Sep 2004 (CEST)<br /> ----<br /> I added to wikipedia-like templates. To edit them go to Template:ThinkWiki_Preamble and Template:ThinkWiki_News.<br /> Shall we put the other parts of the page in templates, too? If we do so, we could have that nice block design from wikipedia on our mainpage.<br /> <br /> --[[User:Akw|akw]] 11:37, 25 Sep 2004 (CEST)<br /> <br /> ----<br /> I think this is too much color. Makes it less readable, takes longer to orientate than the plain list style layout.<br /> <br /> Liked it with only the two blocks in the beginning.<br /> <br /> If we want to use blocks for everything, please stick to fewer colors. I think the yellow of the first block is not bad, and else i'd suggest light grey, maybe light blue.<br /> <br /> However, if we stick to having all in blocks, how about [[User:Wyrfel/mainlayouttest | this color scheme]]?<br /> <br /> [[User:Wyrfel|Wyrfel]] 16:35, 25 Sep 2004 (CEST)<br /> <br /> ----<br /> Made [[User:Wyrfel/mainlayouttest-LTP | another Mainpage layout sketch]]. This tries to resemble the Tux and IBM logo colors and therefor looks quite &quot;fresh&quot;.<br /> <br /> [[User:Wyrfel|Wyrfel]] 18:59, 25 Sep 2004 (CEST)<br /> ----<br /> '''Important change:''' Moved Main_Page to ThinkWiki for cosmetical reasons..<br /> <br /> --[[User:Akw|akw]] 16:54, 26 Sep 2004 (CEST)<br /> ----<br /> <br /> == Needed: older ThinkPad specs... ==<br /> <br /> As you can tell by my userid here, I've got a 600E. There are a whole lot of them out there thanks to the fact it was the current model during the Dot-Com era. We should cover the older ThinkPads and their quirks as well as the later models. <br /> <br /> I also had a 365X, which is now living with a friend in the UK.<br /> <br /> Yes, the next ThinkPad I'll probably score is a T4x, they are really kewl machines and inspire technolust in this geek. But until then, I love my 600E and I'm looking forward to some upgrades this weekend. <br /> <br /> I will make copious notes on the upgrade process, which will include the installation of a 40GB hard drive and using the stock 10GB drive as extra Windows storage space. I have a hard drive bay module so the stock drive can be reused. The vast majority of the HD will be given over to an install of Debian Linux, with a 7GB Windows 2K partition because the University I will be attending a year from now demands it. (Yeah, I know, sucks, doesn't it.)<br /> <br /> ThinkPad different,<br /> Michelle</div>
