Actually, the SNAP support on my T60 systems is one of the brighter
spots. I did have to install the most current driver to get the
Win-OS2 working. But, that part of my T60 seems OK.
Granted, I am not interested in high intensity graphics, movies, etc.
And, when I asked about the WiFi, PRO/1000, I thought I had received
positive comments about those working. I did get advice to purchase
the Intel GMA 950 instead of the ATI Mobility chipsets.
I'm still hoping for some miracle on the WiFi and PRO/1000. I also got
some bad advice on the audio. Close, but no hand grenades or
horseshoes around to make up the distance... :-(
