This thinkpad and the previous one I owned (i1200) were both great under 
Linux, even the built-in wireless chips and the function keys for the 
keyboard light, volume control, and so forth. I highly recommend Thinkpads. I 
also was able to pick up this machine for 775 on ebay, so it wasn't too 
pricey for the feature set, and I love it.
