    8.10 works great on the X31. The only small issue is once every now and then on resume, it won't wake up.. not to big of an issue as only happens about once every couple of weeks.

    I am a big fan of thinkpads.

    I don't actually *need* a new computer, so I bought myself a Nintendo Wii instead - fun fun fun!

    Much as I'd like one that's rather out of the question. Things are fine with my current lappy though.
