I sure hope so. The laptop is very new and I never had trouble with it,
but to tell the truth, it is a refurbished model so can't say for sure.

I think the hardware is fine but there is _very weird_ stuff about the
laptop... I feel like their ACPI implemention is nowhere near standard
and that might cause the problems. It's like everything on this laptop
is under a very agressive power management that bypass the OS and
confuse drivers. But again, it's just a feeling, I don't really have
much facts that back up this theory ;)
