How did you find the hardware support, and does suspend/speedstep/other 
"laptop things" work out of the box? I have an R40 with Sarge, and have 
never got around to making suspend work, which is something that I'm 
sure I'd appreciate. The closest I've come was installing one of 
Norbert's new suspend-enabled kernels 
(http://www.inittab.de/blog/2004/09/14#20040914_swsusp-kernels).
