Yep, it is that Thinkpad.

The CMOS battery is currently outputting 0.169V instead of the normal 3V, 
so that explains why we were getting date not set and memory size errors.

The TP is on charge at the moment so that I can flash the BIOS to the 
latest version.

Current plan:
Ubuntu Hoary (Warty if all else fails)
+ OpenOffice
+ firefox
+ ssh
+ apache2
+ PHP
+ subversion
+ ethereal
