This is just the last in a long series of Thinkpad f***ups.  I
concluded long ago that ThinkPads are nothing but trouble: buggy
BIOSes; broken charge controllers that will ruin a brand new battery
in weeks; keyboard / trackpoint assemblies with a one-year MTBF;
broken APM and / or ACPI; docking stations that render the machine
unusable until you reset and reconfigure the BIOS, etc.  Unfortunately
I can't afford a new laptop, so I'm stuck with my 600E.
