Re: Buying a New Laptop

I used a Thinkpad 13 2nd Gen with OpenBSD. Everything worked as expected, all
the function keys worked, no problems with power management.

I'm willing to bet that most modern Thinkpads can handle OpenBSD. There might
be models that don't support OpenBSD but they're few and far between.

Buying a New Laptop

[Coppock, Patrick H]

Hi,

I'm thinking about getting a new laptop, and I want to get something with good 
OpenBSD support. I know ThinkPads have had good support historically, and I'm 
wondering if that holds for recent machines. In particular, I've been eyeing 
the L13. Does anyone have a similar machine running OpenBSD that could comment 
on the hardware support?

Thanks,
Patrick
