Warp works fine on Thinkpad (I have a 750C)...but make sure you get the
SECOND FixPak. My experience told me that after 'servicing' your OS with
this FixPak, the audio driver STILL DOES NOT work properly. you have to
manually unpack the driver. to do this, try the following:

Inset the THIRD FixPak disk into your TP.
open an OS/2 window, and type

unpack a:\fix\os2.1\cs4231.sy_ c:\mmos2

That should solved the problem.

Also, no passwork or suspend problem. Go ahead with Warp.
