Hey @Wildbill I was just telling someone the story of you winning that SUSE-branded Thinkpad X series at Linux World Expo and announcing you were going to install Ubuntu on it. Do you still have that laptop?

@kyle I *do* have that laptop. It’s in my workshop. No idea if it’s in a bootable state, but I still have it. Why?

@Wildbill No particular reason, I was just curious after remembering the story.

@kyle That was a fun day. LOL. Isn’t the X60 one of the machines that can run those open BIOS versions?

@Wildbill Yes, and as always, there's a Linux Journal article (series actually) about it: linuxjournal.com/content/libre

@kyle I’ll have to save that for if and when I’m severely bored, lol.
