I've had *really* good luck with IBM's.  My new 366Mhz ThinkPad 600E
works great, although I haven't (yet) tried to get sound working, I
don't expect to have any problems.

It required one minor change to the kernel to recognize my
PCCARD/CardBus controller, but that will be part of FreeBSD 3.2 soon to
be released.

I recommend IBM's whole-heartedly.
