Let's just hope he didn't buy the motorcycle to imitate Lenovo and ride over his thinkpads to show his friends why he's such an enthusiast...

Steve,

Thanks for taking up my challenge and going first!

Your collection is truly amazing, and if we just had a couple hundred more customers like you, Lenovo would be on the fast track to #1 - overtaking dell and HP in terms of marketshare ! :wink:

Best wishes,

Mark
