Thinkpad 820 (PowerPC)



Too bad there's no OS/2 for these machines yet.  IBM says it should be 
ready in the fall.  I wonder who's first Win95 or OS2 for powerpc's.
Right now for these PowerPC thinkpad you have a choice between Windows NT 
3.51 or AIX 4.1 or no operating system at all (yeah I'll take that option).

Power Series Program Pack CD-ROM
 
The Power Series Program Pack CD-ROM ships with each system unit and
contains the software applications for AIX and Windows NT listed
below.  With the exception of the CD-ROM based system manuals, these
applications are normally part of the standard AIX or Windows NT
preload.  However, this CD-ROM is also provided for backup purposes.
 
o  Essentials!
o  Power, Performance, Potential
o  CompuServe WinCIM Power Series Edition (NT only)
o  Introducing your IBM ThinkPad Power Series 820 (NT only)
 
Essentials! is a Windows application which contains a customer
registration program, a catalog of supported options and adapters and
an overview of the IBM HelpWare(R) support coverage.
 
Power, Performance, Potential is a multimedia presentation which uses
three dimensional audio and artwork-quality graphics to introduce the
user to key Power Series technology and marketing messages.  Since
this application consumes a significant amount of hardfile space, IBM
has also provided a "Remove PPP" utility which allows the user to
reclaim this space for other applications.
 
For users who also purchase a modem with their Power Series system, a
personalized version of the CompuServe WinCIM application is provided
for quick and easy access to the CompuServe Power Series forum.
Power Series product announcements, updates of system software,
device drivers and other important information will be provided on
this key forum which focuses on the needs of application developers
and large corporate users.  This software includes information about
obtaining a complementary CompuServe subscription worth one month of
basic services and a $15 usage credit.
 
In an effort to reduce desktop clutter and leverage powerful
multimedia presentation tools within Windows NT, IBM has provided a
CD-ROM-based system manual.  Introducing Your IBM ThinkPad Power
Series 820 provides an audio/video overview of the features of the
new IBM ThinkPad Power Series 820 systems.
 
If a user elects to remove these applications from the hardfile or in
the event of a hardfile failure, IBM has also provided additional
software on the Program Pack to re-create the original preload image
on the hardfile.
 
Carrying Cases
 
With the IBM ThinkPad Power Series 820, you also get a Personal
Carrying Cases for ThinkPad  catalog by Port, Inc.  The catalog
features a special line of cases designed to comfortably carry the
IBM ThinkPad.  The cases offer protection against common drops and
bumps, with most offering a unique shock-absorbing system that
provides greater protection than simple foam padding.  Cases are
available in a variety of sizes and styles to satisfy individual
needs and tastes.  You can order the cases through IBM or at the
original place of purchase or directly from Port, Inc.
 
These products are solely a Port, Inc., offering.  IBM does not
provide any warranty, including any implied warranties, for these
products.

Security, Auditability, and Control
 
Standard Security Features
 
o  Passwords
 
   -  A power-on password (POP) helps protect the system from
      unauthorized use.  If a POP is set, the password prompt
      appears:
 
      -- Each time the system is turned on
      -- When the system is returned to normal operation from suspend
         mode if implemented by the operating system
 
   -  A supervisor password provides a higher level of security than
      the POP.  The supervisor password helps protect the system
      functions from being used by unauthorized users and helps
      protect the hardware configuration from unauthorized
      modification.  If a supervisor password has been set, the
      system will prompt the user to enter a password when trying to
      access configuration or start up sequence sub-menus of
      Easy-Setup.
 
o  The user can connect the hook on the locking mechanism to a leash
   with a user-selected padlock and chain or cable.
 
o  The system is Vital Product Data (VPD) enabled.  VPD is a software
   system identification method.
 
World Trade Considerations:  The IBM ThinkPad Power Series 820 system
supports an icon-based interface that eliminates the need for
National Language translation.  To configure the system, you select
icons from an easily understandable menu.
 
National Language Support is also dependent on the operating system
used.  Refer to the operating system manuals to determine support for
a particular country.
 
User management is responsible for evaluation, selection and
implementation of security features, administrative procedures and
appropriate controls in application systems and communications
facilities.

Maintenance Service
 
ThinkPad EasyServ (6040):  ThinkPad EasyServ is a courier repair
service in which the ThinkPad system will be picked up at the
customer's location and delivered to an IBM designated repair
location.  The repair location will repair the system and return it
to the customer.  Charges for the courier service will be paid by
IBM.
 
ThinkPad EasyServ Overnight Repair Option:  The ThinkPad EasyServ
Overnight Repair Option allows customers whose mobile systems are
under an IBM EasyServ Warranty or IBM EasyServ Maintenance Agreement
to upgrade the service to overnight repair with a per incident
charge.  Customers should call the IBM HelpCenter at 800-772-2227 for
information on utilizing this service.  This offering is available in
the U.S. only.
 
ThinkPad EasyServ Maintenance Agreement:  If the customer has
selected ThinkPad EasyServ for their post warranty maintenance
delivery, and service is required, the customer should call the IBM
HelpCenter at 800-772-2227.  The HelpCenter will assist the user with
problem isolation for both hardware and software.  Should a hardware
problem be identified, the HelpCenter will arrange for a courier to
pickup the system for overnight delivery (where available) to the
repair location.  Most repairs should be made the same day the system
is received at the repair location.  Customers should keep the
original shipping carton for shipping to the repair location.  If the
original shipping carton is not available, the courier will deliver a
shipping carton and return to pickup the system for delivery to the
repair location.  ThinkPad EasyServ post warranty service is
available in the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
