The only concerns I have with OpenBSD are related with APM and ACPI support (e.g., problem report number 5307/kernel). In fact, APM was the only unsupported feature on the CPi R400GT; even the previously unsupported Xircom combo card (modem + NIC) works fine on OpenBSD 4.0. I only expect the softmodem to remain unsupported then (and it will probably remain unsupported forever). If you say it works then it certainly *works*; I have not doubt about this fact. Thank you very much for your comment. > It would be a good choice for a used laptop. I never used IBM/Lenovo Thinkpad laptops, but I hope that its hinge will be better than the ones on the HP and Dell systems. Here, in the Department of Physics, we have an old HP laptop with a broken hinge, I had an HP Omnibook laptop that died in the same way, and now the Latitude has another broken hinge... manufacturers should care about these cheap components or minimize the force pairs applied to the hinge. I suppose that a manufacturer that uses a titanium-reinforced composite will care about the quality of hinges and lids used on the displays. Thanks, again, for your feedback. I will add the T30 to the list of wanted Thinkpads. Cheers, Igor.
