A closer look at the page I was using shows a release date of 30 APR 2003 with a BIOS date of 21 Dec 1999??? Guess I was just looking at the BIOS date. I'm really sorry to hear that it didn't work. How badly does it fail? I do get a number of ACPI errors at boot time, but most don't seem too critical. I can see the battery condition and it reports the temperature for a single thermal zone (currently 29.32). Powers off properly, but does seem to suspend. I do wish APM was still available for me! R.
