I bought an IBM T30 a week ago from a person in Stockholm. It is a 1.8 GHz Pentium4-M computer with 512 MB of memory and wireless networking.

The Thinkpad is a very solid computer, and the week I have been using it I’m becoming more and more impressed of its qualities. The only thing I am concerned of is the graphics card. The computer contains an ATI Mobility Radeon 7500, which is only moderately supported. I do get okay results when playing games, but I believe that the radeon driver gives me problems with textures. In Gnome I do sometimes get buttons that have a black pattern on them, a pattern that disappears when hovering the buttons.

Apart from the graphics, the computer is working great and I look forward to many hours of joyful usage on board Elida.
