Today a colleague surprised me with a black & white shot of his T410.
I found it quite artistic so I though I'd share it with you guys.
The lack of colour does not make a lot of difference for the subject

No offense meant, but I fail to see where the "artistic" comes in...

The "ThinkPad" logo makes all photos artistic

A black and white photo of a black and white subject...
The legendary keyboard in the background...
A vintage shot of a technological item that is both modern and old depending on the context...
The Thinkpad logo both in center and in focus, around which everything revolves...
Still you feel nothing?

So just because it doesn't appeal to you, does it mean it's not artistic?

Nice pic of the T410. I own one myself and rather enjoy it.
@RBS: The wiki link you posted about the 1401 in the other thread has some great info. I feel I was born 30 years too late. I would have loved to work with that gear. To me those are real computers. By no means anywhere near as fast as the server racks I work with, but they seem to have more 'soul' to them than any rack I have touched.
I got to play with some cool IBM gear when I was in the Navy. Stuff from the 70's. Note as vintage, but cool nonetheless.
