For the sake of this list:

Ok Robert, you win.  I'm totally, completely, unequivocably, undeniably,
inexcusably wrong.  I was wrong to suggest IBM's educational pricing
was absurd, I was wrong to suggest IBM should try harder to save money
for people in academia.  I was wrong to say that IBM's Thinkpad hard 
disks are overpriced.  I will not speak of any of this again.  I will 
refrain from criticizing IBM's management and pricing policies.  I will
no longer post information on how to get better deals than directly
from IBM because you've convinced me that IBM's prices are totally,
entirely, irrefutably fair.
