I wanted to try out a time-appropriate Blender version for this ThinkPad, just to see what the experience might've been like in 2005. It definitely makes you appreciate how streamlined and powerful current Blender is.
Scene created, rendered and edited in Blender 2.40 on a ThinkPad T43. Both released in 2005.
1.67 GHz single core processor and 512 MB of RAM.

Foppy Drive
This anomalous creature appears to be a floppy disk drive that has somehow gained sentience, and the ability to walk. It resembles a fox, and makes mechanical sounds in a way that mimics a fox's natural sounds. Because of this we have taken to calling it the "Foppy Drive." It currently resides within our office, and often takes off with our very important disks. Further research is pending.
