Hello all!

#1 Post by IBM » Tue Jan 26, 2010 2:56 pm

Hello!

My name is Gavin, but I am called IBM by my friends and others because I am obsessed with IBM I suppose.

I have been using IBM products ever since 1992 and I absolutely love IBM. The ThinkPad is without a doubt the toughest laptop today.

I currently use an IBM ThinkCentre M52 Desktop, an IBM ThinkPad 390X, IBM ThinkPad T40,T41, T43p, an IBM IntelliStation M Pro (Server Tower), and an IBM dot matrix printer.

I yearn to work for IBM one day, because, as I said, I love their computers, however, I am aware that IBM moved their PC manufacturing to Lenovo. Same company, so if so, I will hopefully one day work for them.

Anyways, I would just like to say hi!

Regards,

IBM

Yes, I see, I just don't know what it is about IBM I love. Maybe it is their awesome logo XD. But at the moment, the

IntelliStation M Pro isn't doing so well, bad hard drive and it is very dirty. So I am fixing it right now. Should be good to go

once I put in the new SSD I bought. But yeah, the IntelliStations are monsters, I love it though. Still, why should a

computer tower weigh 60 pounds? Oy vey, sometimes I will never understand IBM. lol
