opinions on the new thinkpad 38x




Hello.  I am currently the owner of a Thinkpad 750 with 170MB disk, 20 MB
ram running linux 2.0.29.  This year I plan on getting a new thinkpad.
The 750 (which has a monochrome screen) has patterned flickering on the
lower half of the screen when I turn on the computer and sometimes when I
angle the display just right (or is that wrong).  I can push the display
back all the way and back up to resolve this problem.  Other than this
little problem, my 750 has been very good (and even this is very minor).

I am considoring getting a thinkpad 38x.  Does anybody have one or have
heard of anything about this model?

I am going to be running linux, so I want a machine with lots of RAM, a
built in floppy drive, maybe a built in CDROM (not essential), color
screen, built in sound blaster and a much larger disk.  I think that the
38x is the most useful/price competitive model out there.  I would welcome
any opinions!!!
