Garrison Keillor uses a Thinkpad!

Prarie Home Companion has always been our touchstone to the United States (we live in Mexico). I get email notices of the shows and poetry (I read it to my boys) and noticed this photo of him clearly (to me) using a Thinkpad!
T30 2366-61U dead mobo
T30 2366-81U still works but not being currently used. I think I'll rectify that situation.
T40 2373-19U dead
(2) T42 2373-JXU with Flexview LCDs. One with either GPU or southbridge issue.
T43 2687-D4U with possible software problem. Awaiting R&Rs.

From the keyboard bezel and size of the lid, I would guess its a 15" A2x machine... :D
