OK - it's not what you asked but - why IBM? There are many, much "better" laptops out there, unless you're restricted by purchasing policy at work ,for example.

IBM seems to support linux and I need a linux friendly laptop.
There's no doubt that IBM make very solid laptops but they are by no means the only Linux-friendly ones: the converse isn't necessarily true, either! I'm running SuSE 9.1 on an HP Pavilion zd7000 and previously had an ASUS L/C3000 - no problems with either. Worked out of the box (except for wireless on the Pavilion, which is fine now, after some fiddling). Just might be worthwhile casting your net a little wider. You might want to take a look at http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/ Please don't think I'm trying to put you off IBM...........! David
