Yeah, for an 8 year old "ultra portable" its not half bad. I have 256MB ram on order so I can max it out at 320MB and I may order a battery soon since the one it came with seems to be dead. Only holds a charge for like 3 minutes.
http://picasaweb.google.com/mikeypizano/ThinkPad570 I just got this the other day from one of our forum members *you know who you are!* and I installed XP Pro on to it. Even though its quite old, I love it.
I have a purpose made Targus one I got like 4 years ago for my PDA keyboards in the car, but I like the big slab of wood better. I should take some pictures later...
