Looks like a nice catch Kevin!

One of your other post suggested you might be thinking of swapping out
the wifi card. Be aware that the ThinkPad BIOS blacklists some cards
preventing you from using them. As an alternative check rokland.com for
a USB wifi stick that works with most Linux distros. Handy to have
around.
