I'm a student at RPI, and one of the things they do here is require all incoming freshmen to buy a version of the IBM thinkpad T20. Being a tech school, many people have interest in getting a *nix flavor running. Thus, our chapter of the ACM has a project to get a working version of many alternate OSes. They imply that they have a working version of FreeBSD, as well as others. This works atleast for the mid-price-range 2000 model of the T20.

Maybe I'm mistaken, if so, sorry all.
