That looks like quite a nice deal :)

From the sublime to the ridiculous ...

I have an old Panasonic Toughbook CF-47. Bought it off eBay, used it for
work for a while, gave it to my son when he started Uni; he has now got a
netbook (and almost finished his PhD) and given it back :)

192 MB RAM (gee whiz! )
Pentium III 448 MHz
There is some moan at boot up about the BIOS being pre 1999 so it can't do
something :)
Disk 7.2 GB
Battery is shot, only runs from mains
currently running Ubuntu 7.04 (!!)
When I booted it up it said it had not done an fsck for 1209 days and
proceeded to check the disk and booted up just fine.

It may not be quite what you are after but if it's of any use to you or
anyone else I'd be happy to see it go free to a good home.
