Comment 2 for bug 178196

Tom --

That computer was a home laptop, purchased in summer, 2006 (my recent
purchase was for work). Look for a PC purchase under e-mail address
<email address hidden> or <email address hidden>. It definitely is a System 76
laptop, one of the last Pentium M models (it may have been called a
Pangolin, but I can't be sure). I actually own two of them, the
second purchased in the fall of 2006. Let me know what information i
can provide (maybe a photo that shows a System76 logo?) that can
convince you that it really is a System76 laptop. I bought two from
Carl.

I'll see whether I can find an e-mail copy of an invoice or an order number...
