And a proposito, I'm advising against Thinkpads (as everybody should have done) since day one IBM sold out his lot to Lenovo, since almost a year thus. Of course I was the bad guy (and still am I presume), but don't tell me I was/I am to late.

IBM owns almost 19% of Lenovo. Sell out? No. They simply profited from the success of the label, and took in a bundle of cash - while still holding an 18.9% stake in the profits. Good business. If I owned IBM stock, I probably would have been pleased with the deal. (See http://tinyurl.com/ywlzfh for more details, as well as http://tinyurl.com/2aqur9 and http://tinyurl.com/2fkjgx - the latter two being less biased, IMO.)

But this, too, is going far afield from where it should be on this list. If someone wants to bring us back into sync with Wi-Fi support on OS/2 and how that was impacted by the Lenovo acquisition of the ThinkPad marque, than by all means, please step up.
