Those TVs are awesome. B&W or color? I've got a B&W Zenith one in my shop for testing games. I built the RF modulator for it out of a Genesis RF switch. Works great.

Got 2 of these laptops free.

http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:380XD

They are Thinkpad 380XD, if you think your laptop is built like a tank, you should see these mothers.

Both have 00192 errors on bootup, which further research says it is the fans, but how ofter does a fan go bad especially when ALL these model laptops my school has, all have this error which is weird.
