Do any Thinkpad series have docks that offer ISA Support? If so, which specific docks and which were the highest end model ThinkPads they were compatible with?

Thanks,

The old Dock I and Dock II (the OLD ones, not the current ones). They worked with up to the 760XL only, nothing after that.

I may be crazy, but I though the SelectaDock series had at least one ISA slot. Let's check the HMM Volume 2... nope, Volume 4.

Yes, the SelectaDock III has two shared ISA/PCI slots and one PCI slot. The fastest ThinkPad I know you can use with that is a 600X. You need a SelectaBase 600, but you can get those on eBay for a dollar or so. The SelectaDock III is $0 to $10, but it's heavy.

You can get a 600X with a 650MHz PIII, and can upgrade that to 850MHz if money is no object.

TWBOOK says it will work up to the 770Z too.

You're absolutely right, and I should have remembered that, because I actually have and use a Selectadock III with my TP 600X....!

(The Selectadock I and II also have ISA support, by the way.)
