bro just try linux on new thinkpads. although linux would work there also but binary incompatibility would become and issue. also new thinkpads of today's date seem that they support linux well mostly of Lenovo thinkpads

This fucker? Bro thats over 10 years older than me, and I am an adult now apparently.
Just get a Raptor Computing Talos II computer. POWER is opensource and Talos II is also! Should only be around 3 Grand for the base spec tho. AMD Radeon GPU required. Like Radeon Pro W7100 should do fine
gigantipad@reddit (OP)
Yeah but the 800s are a vibe. They are also stupidly rare so it isn't likely I will ever have one.

Any true Linux user hates IBM, source hackers a book from 1984 talking about 1950s and 1960s computer student's aka one of the first Foss groups

I worked in IBM that time, I had that pad and I had also a poster with that... (circa 2005).
gigantipad@reddit (OP)
LOL go figure. You should have hung on to that stuff I would have bought the poster off you. :D
Lava-Jacket@reddit
IBM is a shell of a company these days. At least their IT for hire techs. They don't even know how linux works.
KevlarUnicorn@reddit
Hell yeah, I love it! I love classic Linux stuff, honestly just class computer stuff is great, but especially older Linux stuff is awesome.
gigantipad@reddit (OP)
Totally agreed, I actually use a thinkpad 770 for work. Old keyboards are my favorite.
kurokame@reddit
Aww man, I can almost hear the beautiful >CLACK< >CLACK< of the IBM Model M keyboard I used to have.
gigantipad@reddit (OP)
Yeah, I have written like 250k words on a 770 and nothing can match it for me outside of a model m.
schlamster@reddit
This thread is making me weirdly nostalgic
DeinOnkelFred@reddit
There were black Enter keys before the blue ones, obviously, but man do I miss the Big Blue™ Enter key!
Gullible_Hospital758@reddit
Buy, IBM Linux on POWER.

UntestedMethod@reddit

tuxbass@reddit
Thinkpad and a mouse smh...
DeinOnkelFred@reddit
LOL. Downvoted by those Arch users who cannot find the "clit". I gotcha, brother! 🍥
Zelamfvvvvfvvvv@reddit
Where can I buy it??
gigantipad@reddit (OP)
Ebay is probably the best bet. They aren't common from what I can tell.
very-imp_person@reddit
I assume its IBM thinkpad and not lenovo's
very-imp_person@reddit
Hmm i wannna buy one.
gigantipad@reddit (OP)
No that is a t14, but I have plenty of ibm thinkpads.
CECHAMO81@reddit
What a great mousepad, you needed one
ElectrMC@reddit
Is that a Logitech g203 mouse?
gigantipad@reddit (OP)
Yeah good eye
terminalslayer@reddit
It looks so cool bro
Realistic_Bee_5230@reddit
Would go hard with a SPARC server running OmniTribblix (arguably the best OS) or something.
ArtichokeRelevant211@reddit
Ooh let me go find my serial console cable
