The Pink Floyd sticker on my back window is getting lonely, so I wanted to add a ThinkPad sticker. I searched all over the internet and didn't find anything. Has anyone ever seem them? If I drove a hotwheels car I'd use the one off the laptop, but that's not quite visible from 20 feet away.

I have searched for thinkpad stickers as well, but have had no luck. I would love to pick up a couple....

Wouldn't a sticker advertising one of the most expensive laptop brands on the planet be an invitation to more larcenous types to smash your windows or pry open your trunk for a look around?

If the person or company isn't providing money or compensation, then I don't let them advertise on me. The only exception is a small logo or name plate on products they make that I buy. When people pay to advertise on billboards, radio, television and the likes, there is no reason I should pay to have them advertise on me. I also make exceptions for some situations where the advertising is a side effect; an example of that being my signature here in which I advertise my collection but at the same time also give some endorsement to the companies that manufactured the computers in my collection.

Oh, come on Alex, wouldn't a Thinkpad tattoo on the back of your freshly shaved head be nice???

Thinking outside the box again? My one track mind had me looking specifically for a pre-made sticker, but the first site will work well. It even lets you preview what it'll look like.
Thanks Ray.
edit: I've gone ahead and ordered a 3"x10" sticker, with two slanted IBM ThinkPad logos. Two for one...

I'm actually a little surprised that IBM/Lenovo didn't just include one which is fairly common with "high-end" products. As much as Apple keeps cutting out of the iPod box, they still include the ubiquitous Apple sticker and I still have several of the Handspring stickers around in draws some place.
Let me know how your's custom made on turns out. Oh, by the way, I received the RAZR and put in the new battery.... my wife's been using it and loves it!
Thanks!

I've got some Handspring stickers too from when I had the old crappy 8MB Visor.
What do you guys think about this sticker?

So, the next time I'm in Philly (been there only once), if I see a car with an IBM ThinkPad logo on it, I'll have a 50% chance of bumping into you
?

I like your math! Don't know where you got it from, but it's nice.
I'll probably be offering up the second sticker if someone is interested.
1/19 edit- I ordered the stickers at 9AM today, and at 12PM had an email saying they'd been printed and shipped! Either they had absolutely nothing to do today, or it's just an efficient company.
