One thing about more memory: it makes installation of some distros much easier. Other than that, you're absolutely right about memory. The little Sony VAIO I've been using works wonderfully with DSL: http://www.flickr.com/photos/coachdanny/1343088722/ I’m hoping a nice Thinkpad will get donated to Free Geek Central Florida.

I've had a Thinkpad T23, too, and I wouldn't mind to have kept it. Someone just made me an offer I couldn't refuse, and I had to let go of it (let's say that with that I could buy a used X31 by spending a further 50 dollars). They are just brilliant, sturdy and reliable machines. The keyboard is perfect, the "nipplepad" (lol), aka trackpad, is way superior to any touchpad I've ever used, and at least these two that I've owned and played around with are incredibly silent (and light, especially the X31). Congrats on joining the Thinkpad club. (and BTW, Arch + Thinkpad... what a perfect combination). Thinkpads are the best laptops in the world :D
