We are considering an IBM ThinkPad 701 for FreeBSD. I don't know what it has on the inside (the store clerk frowns on my taking laptops apart in his showroom...) :-) This puppy is 75MHz 486 so is kinda slow, but will the other stuff work? For example: 1) modem uses DSP (?) 2) disk is not IDE (MicroChannel?) 3) UART chip (??) 4) other stuff like the red button mouse (just a PS/2 mouse?) Is this gonna work or cause me lots of headaches?
