When I was in college I got my first laptop in 2005. It was a rather decent OEM machine that I used for several years. Unfortunately I did not keep it. Trillian is the closest equivalent ThinkPad to what I had then in terms of specs and release date. I actually use this as my main Windows XP gaming machine.
