An IBM ThinkPad 600E has accompanied me for around five years now. It has survived two drops from about a meter height, hours of usage on train and carrying in various transportation vehicles, a whole bunch of hacky festivals (meaning lots of dirt and strange operating environments), a shift of operating systems (from BeOS to [[Linux]]), a 4-inch flood standing on the floor in a soaked cloth bag, my relatively careless overall handling and of course an uncountable number of keystrokes. | An IBM ThinkPad 600E has accompanied me for around five years now.
