I've met some of the guys at Austin from the Thinkpad design group. We discussed some of the design issues related to the 755's, so I assumed at the time that they were responsible for the design. I'm sure there is an extensive design cycle, though, where the EE's design the laptop, the manufacturing engineers say it can't be done that way, and so on. > Most of the TFT LCD's are from a joint IBM-Toshiba plant in Japan. The joint IBM/Toshi plant is in upstate New York. It was built there to avoid the tariffs the US placed on the Japanese for dumping. The rumor is that the same plant will be used to jointly manufacture 64Mbit DRAMS. Robert
