It's black. It runs AIX. It's IBM. Is it a ThinkPad? No!

Holy hell, I feel like someone who just learned they were adopted and their original family looks so much like them.
I want one of those N40's 1

Wow..
Nothing more I can say really. What an incredible piece of kit. Its like IBM took a look at a server one day and thought "hey, I bet we can make that into a laptop!"
I know there was the 800 series which has PowerPC architecture and SCSI drives, but I didn't realise they had designed others as well. Great find!

As much as I'd love one of these, I'm not too sure if it could live with my other IBM engineered equipment, not due to it not being a thinkpad, but due to that fact that it was developed by tadpole and thusly will always in my mind have more to do with tadpole's SPARC and Alpha books, very much like the Sun Ultra 30 that Sun branded a while back.
