eBay Episode 17 – KansasFest & the ThinkPad

IBM ThinkPad 700 series

This is the podcast where we take an informal look at personal computing history through the lens of eBay auctions. It’s sort of like Antiques Roadshow, but all about antique personal computers. On today’s show, we continue our coverage of the second phase of portables with the laptop. We’re exclusively covering the IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad, since it has been around since 1992.
