Where did that accessories discount notice go?

I've got a new T61p with which I'm very happy. The first few weeks I had it, I think there was a welcome screen which promised me a 10 percent discount off of an accessories purchase -- maybe if I would register my computer online or something. Well, I finally decided I might buy an accessory, but that message no longer seems to appear -- either that or I can't remember what I did to trigger it.

Can anyone tell me how to get this message back? Thanks.

It's under ThinkPad updates. I don't know if it remains after you actually register it, though. I've been waiting to register my T61p because I wanted to leave it there in case I go nuts and decide to order a dock for it.

Thanks for the info, SafeHarbor. I guess I waited too long. I was thinking of a dock, too, since they're already on sale at 20 percent off or so, and I figured I could probably combine discounts.

Actually, as big as this T61p screen is (I got WUGA), I feel less need of a dock than I did with my T43. Still, 30 percent off was a good deal.
