I have a T60p that I bought a few weeks ago. My only hassle so far is
getting the wireless NIC to do any sort of encryption. I can only get
it to associate with my WAP if I turn off all encryption (I can't even
get WEP to work).. I'm about to post a beer offer if someone might be
willing to make a house call for me...
Otherwise it seems to work great. Oh, well, one other issue is that I
haven't been able to successfully suspend or hibernate it, either.
Going into Hibernate works, but coming out of it locks up.. But I've
seen some info about that; I just haven't had time to troubleshoot it much.
I can make the keyboard light come on, though! whee! And its onboard
FireGL chipset is supported at least by the proprietary ATI drivers, and
its acceleration makes my head spin.
Cheers,
~Brian

I'm looking for a new laptop and think I'll probably get a Thinkpad T60.
I was wondering if anyone here had any comments or recommendations for
or against. Whatever I get, I'll shrink the ntfs partition down and
install Ubuntu so Linux compatibility is important. In fact, I see that
you can get Suse pre-loaded. Of course, it costs about twice as much
that way!
The actual configuration I'm considering is at

Thanks,
