IBM ThinkPad 800 PowerPC Information and Software

System Type: 6020 "Woodfield"

Released before the ThinkPad 850 as the "Power Series 800" (but really more sensical to call it the ThinkPad 800 since it's not a Power Series desktop and even has a "ThinkPad" badge!), it was sent to select developers (programming for: AIX, Windows NT, Solars and PPC OS/2) as a prototype unit for software development and was never commercially sold out to customers. It's basically identical to the 850 externally aside from what's printed on it. The specifications are inferior to the 850.
