has anyone thought about trying a password protected thinkpad drive in
one of those adapters that lets you put your thinkpad drive into a
regular PC?
If an IBM engineer somewhere would care to spill the beans and let us
know how the password is used on the hard drive (i.e. encrypting all the
data, or a flash rom chip somewhere storing the password in memory) then
there might be a way around it.
