There was a link at the above site about a free IBM Thinkpad. How real is this deal? It links to the below site but it does not mention Thinkpads.

The old saying that if it's too good to be true, it probably is, applies here :( You don't get something for nothing!

You would probably have to jump through numerous hoops, sign up for all sorts of stuff, and drag people into the scheme in order to get a "free" computer, and at the end of the day I doubt it would be really "free."

Generally not a good idea to post links to schemes like this on the boards!
Homebuilt PC: AMD Athlon XP (Barton) @ 1.47 GHz; nForce2 Ultra; 1GB RAM; 80GB HDD @ 7200RPM; ATI Radeon 9600; Integrated everything else!
