That's a very nice machine. How's the screen nowadays? The one on my T60 is extremely dim and yellowed, seems like your's is still pretty good?
All of those screens have a CCFL, it's basically a miniature version of of those old tube lights. If that one reaches its end of life it gets dim and yellow and needs to be replaced.
The A22p also accepts the IPS displays from an A31p. I modded mine with one of those, so now I have a Windows 98 notebook with an especially beautiful display. ๐ฅฐ
Is that XP? That looks amazing!
Yes! :) I have dualboot with 98SE on this machine (the eGPU is pretty terrible to use on Windows 98).
