To wit, with apologies to Sean Kennedy...
To my fellow lower and upper class: buy ThinkPads. If I could offer one piece of advice for the future, ThinkPads would be it. The benefits of ThinkPads have been proven in scientific laboratories and our society is going to hell in a handbasket in a rocket assisted fashion. All my other advice pertains to trying to lead some kind of a decent life. You can listen to it, or you can tell me to stuff it, but I will dispense my advice now.
