We have a T60p (FireGL V5250) and several T42's (ATI 9600 and FireGL T2's).

I want to STRONGLY encourage you to run mobility modder to get your ATI driver. The final released version of the 3D drivers from IBM / Lenovo are extremely old, and they don't work reliably with simple and popular games such as minecraft. After several crashes (after just a few minutes) with the final IBM/Lenovo 3D drivers on both T42's and T60's, I used mobility modder on the T60p and have had NO ISSSUEs with minecraft crashes ever since.
=======================
Lots of thinkpads (10+) but I would never be so stupid as to list them all because that would spam everybody's searches and people who *do* try to list them all would be jerks.
