Working on a few projects this weekend, what about you?

Doing some testing with Lenovo #ThinkPad's this week to see how long-lasting they are. Spoilers, they outlast Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 10.

This is why I love these machines. Video to follow.

Question: What is the oldest #ThinkPad you've run a modern distro of #Linux on? What were the specs, and how did it go?

For #ThinkPadThursday, I am prepping my film space with new lights and new audio before filming the assembly of this wonderful model kit. These were released exclusively in Japan for the 10th anniversary of #ThinkPad.

To make a long story short, I lent this out during a conference because the room across from me needed a wireless presenter. It came back and I didn't notice until I left the conference that the receiver was absent. Now it is entirely ewaste. I need a better, serviceable solution

Wow, 8 years is a long time. Thanks for all coming along for the ride. I'm curious, what are your favourite moments?

Next week, #ThinkPadThursday turns 4 years old. How will you celebrate? Looking forward to it.

Hey all, I have acquired a pretty rare machine, but unfortunately, its functionality is very limited without this cable. If you come across this rare cable used to connect to a serial port and mobile Windows CE portable, let me know.

Modern battery technology is really impressive. This is from my Lenovo #ThinkPad X1 Nano G1.

Time to reveal the #ThinkPad X1 Extreme G1, what appears to be when you cross a P series and an X1 Carbon. This thing was impressive.

I did some light work to bring this #ThinkPad T450 back to life the other day. It could use some fresh batteries and a new SSD for its next owner.

Mobile work setup.

Here is a bonus #ThinkPadThursday post and teaser. What do you get when you cross a Lenovo #ThinkPad P series with an X1 Carbon? 🤔

This isn't a pretty sight and I don't know the details but modern #ThinkPad machines can still handle a lot and still work. Wow.

Inspired by Thomas' post, here is my collection of books about #ThinkPad or heavily connected to these amazing machines. #ThinkPadThursday #LenovoIN

Here are some stats from #MyYearOnYouTube2024. The plan is to get a few more uploads in by the end of the year now that I have some time off. Thanks everyone for watching and supporting the channel this year. You're the best!

Has it already been two years since I tested this Lenovo #ThinkPad? Time flies.

I've been working all day on channel stuff. One of the things #YouTube has been pushing for years are mid-roll ads and currently, I still have control of them. I think they are annoying and don't like them but they are pushing how much ad revenue or exposure you might be losing.

Don't see something like this every day. #IBM
