> So why say "More Thinkpad, less Dell Hell" when you could just buy a Thinkpad? So it ALL works? Can you undock? My X31 only partly works on the dock. The DVD/DCRW only works at 4X CD speeds, the USB ports on the dock don't work, the PC-Card slots don't work. But the network, video, serial, floppy and sound do. Can't find any way to trigger an undock. A coworker's T60 is in the same 'almost works' catagory. It will sorta dock (network may or may not attach) but won't undock.

e.g. Thinkpad T60p - very well supported. Posted Apr 9, 2008 23:47 UTC (Wed) by rankincj (subscriber, #4865) [Link] The USB and network ports on the dock all work fine, and I haven't installed any drive into the dock's multi-drive bay yet. (It will probably be an extra hard drive eventually, though - the laptop already has a DVD drive.) There is no PC Card on the dock because there's one on the laptop already, but that works too and currently has an Audigy2 ZS Notebook card in it. The microphone for this Audigy2 card does not work, but that's apparently a known ALSA bug rather than a laptop problem. So far, I have only needed to dock and undock "cold", but doing so "hot" looks to be a matter of turning a key, pressing a button and then pressing a second "eject" button when a light turns green. I have not tried this yet, because I haven't needed to.
