I thought I would add some additional context to the issue. In my day
job, I work for a US company with near $8B in annual revenue. We
probably still have hundreds of Thinkpads still in the field. While they
may be close to end of life for us, they are likely to become beginning
of life for others. Not everyone can afford to replace hardware that
still has plenty of useful life. The main reason I switched to Ubuntu in
the first place was to improve the performance (compared to WinXP Pro)
on the same hardware. I have not been disappointed, until now. If one of
the goals of 12.04 is to establish a long-term stable platform for large
corporations to adopt Ubuntu, it would seem like a smart idea not to
alienate those organizations with large numbers of Pentium M laptops
still in the field.
