I've got to buy a couple of laptops, and want to get something that's as

Are the Lenovo-manufactured ThinkPads still open-source friendly?

afik, ThinkPads have _always_ been Levono-manufactured. The difference is that IBM decided to stop putting 'ibm' stickers on them, and sold the rights to use the 'thinkpad' name to the guys who'd always made them anyway.


The T60 or T60p look like reasonable units for my applications - anyone
got any pros or cons they can share?

A quick google will answer this question. there are plenty of linux/ thinkpad sites out there.


Thanks,
