I had one of these in college and it's probably still in storage somewhere. I couldn't afford a full laptop to put Linux/BSD on, and this was an affordable device to try installing NetBSD onto. Though I succeeded with NetBSD, memory was at such a premium on the CF card that it seemed silly not to just use the OS on the ROM that didn't use up any storage. I mostly used it to run "Pocket Word" to take notes in class and ActiveSync to sync it to my PC. Plus it had enough memory to fit _one_ MP3 which I could use play over and over. Most people at the time thought I had an actual Thinkpad.
