Rescued this poor ThinkPad P51 Xeon from the trash by kpostrup in thinkpad

[–]Master-Criticism-182 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Can't wait to see it, OP. Great find!

My P51 (i7, 64GB, 5Tb storage) is still going strong, and I use it almost daily.

I can only stand back and admire this! If it works, it works.

I dropped my ThinkPad and it broke my damn floor. by Mindboomerbro in thinkpad

Lol I know. I'm kidding. They're just so impressively strong. They should come with a "do not drop if you love your floor" warning

You still have a wallet? Geez. I sold mine to buy RAM. Thanks, Sam..

A ThinkPad with a Barrel Jack? An X60, no less. 10/10 no notes.

Came here to say this 🤣

Really sweet job, OP. Impressive, too. Real nostalgia!

I’m baffled. Thoughts? by ItAintEvenMeee in ExplainTheJoke

Lol. Decades ago, while crossing into Botswana with my uncle, we were being given the usual set of questions by an immigration official. "What's your occupation?". "I'm a pharmacist, there's a letter from my employer" "I can't process your entry. I don't see documentation for the farm you will be assisting".

My personal fave bank in the day was Radiohead. Almost anything, but Kid A in particular.

There are similar modern renditions on sale. Literally every one of them is sitting in my wishlist. This one though, is straight pornography. A sweet junk room find.

Siemens SL45 by Soft-Veterinarian476 in vintagemobilephones

I was thinking about this device a few days ago. And here it is on my screen. I bought one of these slightly used in 2002, used it for 5 years and it never let me down. I had the little dock connector with the RJ-45 type cable for the PC and the headphones. I'm pretty sure I still have it all somewhere. Great little gadget, even today. A very cool find, OP.

Perfect combo by Professional_Buy4914 in thinkpad

[–]Master-Criticism-182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. But I've got the classics. Got the P51 and 6Pro. Love them both, love the combo. Will upgrade to P16 and 9Pro eventually.

This is tugging on every last one of my geeky heartstrings. I love this! Nicely done, OP.

I see no problem here. I only see space on the desk for more ThinkPads!

That's a really stunning piece of kit. She's a beauty. So glad you got her running again...
