I've been running it on my X61 for a while now. For the most part? I'm way happy. it's pretty fast, and reliable. However, I have had some issues with my wireless card but that's been acting up for years without me being able to figure out what the problem is (in windows and in linux). All in all however i'd say go for it. Of course the speed of the boot and how quickly your system runs really depends on what you install. a bare-bones system will run much faster with one that has gnome thrown on it because gnome is heavier than nothing :P. -Josh On Tue, Jun 22, 2010 at 1:12 PM, Josef Tupag <joseftupag@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Has anyone tried Arch Linux on their thinkpad?
