The 701 was the top selling laptop of 1995 [2] however as later laptop models featured progressively larger screens the need for a folding keyboard was eliminated. Consequently no model but the 701 used the butterfly keyboard.The butterfly keyboard is split into two roughly triangular pieces that slide as the laptop s lid is opened or closed. As the lid is opened both pieces slide out to the sides followed by one piece sliding downward. The two halves mesh to form a keyboard 29.2 cm (11.5 in) wide which overhangs the sides of the laptop body. Conversely as the lid is closed one piece slides back then both slide inward until the keyboard can be covered by the lid. The movement of the keyboard is driven by a cam on the lid s hinge so the motions of the keyboard parts are always synchronized with the movement of the lid.The unusual design is being displayed in the design collection of the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan New York [3] and Die Neue Sammlung.An IBM Thinkpad 701 is briefly seen being used by James Bond in the film GoldenEye. It is seen around 51 22 into the film when Bond is being briefed by Q in his laboratory.
