I dunno. As I get older, I find my memory is getting less and less reliable. It's almost like a hallucinagenic state at times, very freaky.

However. I do have a distinct memory of turning over some 2001-2002-era IBM ThinkPads to open them up many times-- I owned two of them at the time, one for spare parts--, and seeing "Made in Italy" stamped on the bottom of them.

My apologies if Alzheimer's has set it very early on me.
