+         IBM Thinkpad A30p
+     </td><td>
+         <p>On my model, most things work fine with OpenBSD 3.1 and later. </p>
+         <p>Beware that IBM does ship variations of the basic model, though.</p>
+         <p>The usual setup as other Thinkpad models is required if one wishes
+         to keep Windows around. As usual, multibooting Windows NT works. I
+         have kept the restore partition around for now, and I recommend
+         burning the recovery partition to CD, as a backup. </p>
+         <p>The video card (ATI Radeon Mobility) needs to be told explicitly
+         to run in 1600x1200 (which is just a two line addition to XF86Config).
+         Sometimes, X doesn't start correctly, and needs to be killed and
+         restarted.
+         The XVideo extension works, so DVDs can be run full-screen with ogle.
+         In -current, mplayer can display most other kinds of video as well.</p>
+         <p>Sound works.  The integrated Ethernet card works.
+         The integrated Prism WiFi works.  Suspend works.
+         The special keys (sound volume, light intensity...) are handled
+         by the hardware and work under OpenBSD as well.
+         The CD Burner works.</p>
+         <p>IDE dma is not recognized in 3.1, as the chipset is a new revision
+         of the Intel 82801. This was fixed right after I got the laptop.
+         I haven't even tried to get the modem or the infrared working.</p>
