Jon:

I have a T61p with eCS2.0 RC7 (Silver) installed. It works very well 
(except possibly for sound, which I do not miss and did not really try 
to make it work.) Installation was straight-forward: not a single 
problem was in my way, as far as I remember, except initially for the 
built-in wireless, which is now solved. Snap was not as good as the 
other video driver (forgot the name), which works well.
