It's a <a href="http://www.emperorlinux.com/mfgr/lenovo/toucan/">Toucan T42p</a> model. I think that the trouble I have with it may be related to the scrollbar button above the touchbad. I'm not sure yet. It's a nice, working machine. I just got the windows set up (fixed size page file, defragger, firewall, etc) last night. I actually do have access to my wireless network from my bedroom (I didn't think I did). Very nice for late-night until-I-fall-asleep stuff. It's nice to have something so small. I can't wait until I carry it on the train the first time (tomorrow). Tim PS: the thinkpads are made in china by <a href="http://www.lenovo.com/us/en/">Lenovo</a>. I got it at Emperor Linux.
