The blank page is a scary thing...

Hi. I'm Chris. My first PC (after an Apple //c) was a ThinkPad 750P. I sold that, and after a few years, the friend I sold it to gave it back to me.

Currently I have that 750P, a 560E, a 570, and a 600X that I tweaked by installing an 800MHz CPU and internal WiFi antennae.

My wife has a 600X. Her sister has an X22. Their mom has a 600E, as does my dad. I take care of all of them.

Two of my friends recently bought 600X's too. One runs only Linux!

I've got Linux on all four of my 'Pads. The 750P is currently a print server using Samba and Slackware, but it is too slow even for that. The 560E will be the new print server. The 570 will be a home audio player. All three currently have Slackware and FreeDOS installed (for running PS2.EXE).

The 600X is my general web-surfing, e-mail, bill paying machine. It has an OS from Redmond and Fedora Core 4.
