Hello everyone! My name is Jayan Patel. I have just invested in my first Thinkpad, after two Toshibas (T1900C, T2155CDS). I just got a Thinkpad 560. It is the 120 MHz, 810MB Hard Drive version with 12.1" TFT screen. I got an extra 16MB RAM put in, to take it to a total of 24MB and also got a Megahertz XJ2288 Fax/Modem PCMCIA card. Other goodies so far are a parallel port Zip Drive. I'm waiting for a HP Deskjet 340 inkjet printer, Infrared dongle for the printer, Logitech Mouseman 96 and extra battery. Initially I was also going to get the Panasonic 4X PCMCIA CD-ROM player so that I could load on Lotus Smartsuite (which was bundled with the computer, but came on CD-ROM), but I put on AmiPro 3.1 so am happy enough for the present to wait for DVD to come (if it does, that is..) I'm using Windows 95 and am happy enough with it for my present purposes, but I'm looking very hard at Merlin - especially the built-in Voice Recognition. I wanted to go straight to Windows NT, but of course our friends at Microsoft have made that less of an attractive choice for portable users. I have a question: Does anyone know for certain whether the memory slot on the Thinkpad 560 for extra RAM can take one or two modules? IBM UK told me that it takes two modules, but having looked in the slot where one 16MB module is already sitting, I cannot see where another one would go. The manual seems to assume that only one module will be inserted, too. Any information will be most appreciated. Cheers. Jayan Patel patelj@essex.ac.uk
