Apparently it affects other HW platforms as well:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/8375

I will try using acpi=off/etc in the future to see if it resolves the 
issue, but being so wide-spread could this be a kernel issue since it 
affects many HW types or are there many BIOS implementations that are 
really buggy?
