I am not sure that the volume on this list merits a newsgroup
just yet. How many are subscribed to date? I am sure that the
popularity of ThinkPads would make for a well used newsgroup, but I
like the intimacy now.
Another note: IBM's use of "ThinkPad" dates at least to the 1960's
when little note pads emblazened with "Think" in gold letters were
doled out. I sincerely doubt that the name would change any time
soon. The number designation, as is already apparent with this
group, can quickly become dated.
