welp, it finally happened, Microsoft decided the latest Minecraft version should drop support for the kids' Thinkpad T410's graphics card.
this box is plenty fast enough to run Minecraft at a playable frame rate; they've been enjoying it for half a decade. I don't know what new OpenGL feature they just Couldn't Live Without but now this machine is destined for recycling.
luckily I had a T420 in I could dust off but ... how long till they pull this shit again and we gotta trash that one too?
