|Hmm...is this legal?

	This history of the drive is this.  He bought the drive in anticipation
	of its use in a laptop he never purchased.  It sat around unused for a
	couple of years.  He forgot about the drive.  He saw my laptop and
	remembered the drive.  It being only 170 mb and having neglible value,
	he offered it to me.  I suppose he could have sold it to me.  Would
	that have made it more legal?

p.s.
	I posted for help on this list, believing that it would be less
	tramatic than trying to explain the above story and get support from
	IBM.  While I really like my thinkpad, I find their support very
	tiresome and irritating EVEN when you have all your paperwork in order.
