And then there were three...

I'm bringing back there two #Lenovo #Thinkpads: an #R400 & a #W500. Both are curb finds - scrounge some power supplies, they both booted up fine. Ordered a battery to replace the missing one on the R400 and the #SODIMM upgrades that I did not already have on hand to max out the memory on both. Also ordered a #PCMCIA card to add #eSATA and one for #USB3 capabilities for my drive docks.
The R400 is running #Win10 32 bit just fine, the W500 is next. Yea, #windoz for some hard drive testing software that only runs on #windowz π
The #T45 is next with a lightweight #Linux or #BSD distro. Pictures & updates on a future #makeshitmonday

Got my warp prepped with some help! Hoping to get it on my wee loom this week.

Dear Friends who are anxious about using your stickers for your laptop...
My solution is/has been to use a laptop skin / protector like those from DBrand.
Then once the laptop needs to be returned or maybe sold to get a new one.
The DBrand skin pulls of (being super gentle) you can then place it onto a poster board and save it and make your own wall art.
Go Use All Your Stickers!!!

I really enjoy having a Philly local timeline with the #jawnsclub server and being a part of hashtags of my choosing. It keeps me plugged into a community I care about and forces me to get creative and use my artistic abilities and make shit.
