Battery is dead – otherwise fully functional.

I can’t claim that it’s the absolute last model IBM actually built, but it’s definitely one of the last iirc

Battery is entirely discharged, and haven’t tried to turn it on in years, but it worked the last time I did.

whatever the lineage is, that's a really nice looking device

Iirc I got a replacement keyboard about a year before I upgraded to a new machine, because the original was starting to get sketchy after using the thing through college. And the battery died at one point and had to be replaced. And I stuck an early-gen SSD in there for a perf boost. But it’s stock beyond that. Also, that was the last 32-bit CPU that I have ever owned lol

@gravitas_deficiency @Jumuta Lenovo built the t60 but it was sold under the IBM brand. They built some of the t43s too. Excellent machine though.

Oh really? Even back in ‘05-06?
