I just got my first ThinkPad today! I got a 570 free from a friend. I plan on installing Linux on it, most likely Xubuntu. Its the 366MHz model. I put in a 20GB hard drive and it has 128MB total RAM, 13 inch screen, and the uultrabase has a DVD ROM. Does anyone have a spare floppy drive cable?

I have a spare floppy drive and cable and can sell both for $10 shipped.

Hang on to it, first I need to get an operating system on this thing! I got it with no OS so I am trying to get a something installed. I will buy it from you if I do get an OS on it.
