[*PIC*] What model is this?

This is slightly embarrassing as a brand new member, but some time ago I lost the small plate which displayed the exact model of my ThinkPad, and I can't for the life of me find out what it is. While it's still functioning, there's a couple of parts that have seen far better days, and I'd like to know what to look for. I did some digging around, searching through pages of old models, and I can't for the life of me find a match.

It's from 1997, or so my father said when he gave it to me several years ago, is running what appears to be OEM 98, and has a NeoMagic MagicGraph 128ZV+ GPU. Screen is 800x600 and measures around 12". Here's a picture (with the keyboard out):

Thanks in advance for any help.

That's an i Series, but I can't find the exact model in the Lenovo Support page...

The label says its type is 2611...

So it is a Thinkpad i1400.

Strange... not finding a direct reference to a 2611-41A. Near as I can tell, a 2611-41A would be an i-Series 1410, 1411 or 1412. However, none of these systems came with the NeoMagic MagicGraph 128ZV+. Instead, they have the 128XD. The ZV GPUs were offered in the 380 series (not ZV+ apparently).

It happened to me a couple of times. Not very often, but stills happens... :?

To the OP: what kind of CPU does it have? According to the German wiki (use google translate for this: http://thinkwiki.de/1400#Technische_Daten) it could be a 1410/1450 (Pentium MMX 266Mhz) or a 1411/1451 (Pentium MMX 300 Mhz).

As pointed above, please check if you didn't mistype the graphic card.

My 2 cents!

No mistake about the GPU, it's clearly printed on here.

I like the idea that this is an unusual specimen. Thanks to everyone who's endeavoring to help.
