Finally, the #ThinkPad, sometime after its 10th year, in a process nobody quite understands, will take adult form, shedding signs of gender. The third mouse button, until now vestigial, develops into a prominent feature as it takes on #plan9 (increasingly classified as #9front in the taxonomy). The adult ThinkPad takes on the life it is most clearly adapted to. Forming secure filesystem overlays across great distances and displaying the tell-tale cat-clock markings.

Here’s as an example of the adult form of the #ThinkPad. As well as significant scarring from earlier life phases, this adult is showing the characteristic cat clock markings of the #plan9 life stage.
