I found a great photo taken on the International Space Station in 2004 of a cosmonaut using the exact ThinkPad model I ordered: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:TORU_docking_system.jpg Reminds me of Sgt. Friday's line about the Yugo in the movie "Dragnet": "It's the the cutting edge of Serbo-Croatian technology!" Puppy performs well on "Yugo" computers. Excellent! and thank you.

I played with Puppy Linux a couple months ago. Very simple to use and lightweight, it's great for speeding up an old system if all you want to do is surf the web, email and simple word processing. If you need a heartier operating system I suggest Ubuntu. It is a full service flavor of linux and is still lightweight enough to make an old system run respectably. I have an old IMB Thinkpad. The optical drive is made to be removed and swapped out with a floppy drive. If you could keep the eject hardware intact it would make a great place to attach the thumb drive for your project. You may be able to make it so it would be easily accessed if you attached the thumb dive with a short extension cable. Good Show.
