- keithpeter 11y agoIt was an allusion to these lyrics... http://forum.tfes.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=d2186vii9bsmjvhk45aleri9d0&topic=3290.msg75711#msg75711 http://forum.tfes.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=d2186vii9bsmjvhk45... ...so credit where credit might be due. Seriously, a recycled core-duo Thinkpad in good clean condition without broken plastic round the PC card socket can be had for the price of a reasonable restaurant meal (with wine) for two in the UK. And that is at the neighbourhood family-run Italian, not the posh ones in Town.
- dfc 11y agoAn allusion to another one result wonder thinkpad phrase;) As far as the quality of old thinkpads[1] go you are preaching to the choir. My thinkpad fetish is actually why I googled your "globally unique dime phrase." [1] Don't get me started on my new T550, I get depressed when I look at my old T41 and then have to use the T550.
