From: Tai Kedzierski To: Edinburgh Linux Users Group I got a message through the Girl Geeks network as per the below - a TV production company wants to talk to people who used / collect / own old ThinkPads for a documentary If you can help please get in touch with Vicki Watson directly: [email protected] *************************************************** We're currently making a documentary for the BBC about Silicon Glen, the area of Scotland which once boasted many big electronics companies. One of the main focuses will be on IBM, which had a huge base in the town of Greenock. We'll be speaking to former workers and looking at the social history of the company in Greenock and the story of the electronics industry in Scotland too. We'll be looking at some of the products manufactured in Greenock over the years - 1 of those being the IBM ThinkPad. (Before it was later taken over by Lenovo). The ThinkPad, and especially the earlier IBM versions, seems to have attracted a cult following. We're currently on the lookout for any individuals, companies or enthusiasts who still use or collect the early IBM ThinkPad models. I wondered if anybody in your group does, or could point us in the right direction. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'd be grateful if you could help to circulate this message around the group. I can be reached on 0141 573 0552 or via email at [email protected] if anybody can help. *************************************************** Cheers, -- Craig Skinner | http://linkd.in/yGqkv7
