OK, there are some reasons:
- with ACPI it is possible to monitor the three thermal zones in the
TP600
- with ACPI the fan stops
- APM worked fine, so I needed something new to try ;)
- with ACPI the battery should last longer (my battery is broken, with
full battery I have 45 minutes, so I am happy with every minute more)
Greetz,
