....P.s. I'll shortly be selling a Lenovo T410!

Basic workhorse laptop. Good for Yuffs or just tinterwebing and stuff.

Whats the best way to clear my crap off it?

Thanks

If it's the original image from new you should be able to do a factory reset on it. F8 on boot (immediately after the ThinkVantage splash screen) should give you a boot menu.

Thanks Cougar. From the boot menu is it pretty self explanatory?

Cheers

Tell a lie,

It's on the ThinkVantage menu I think. It's ages since I've had to do it, I've got a pile of T410s here but they all have a corporate image on so I can't readily check.

After the factory reset i would still be tempted to use something like ccleaner and do a free space wipe
