This is for linux use..like mandrake..suse.
It was suggested to me that IBM laptops are ..very.. linux friendly?
I love my IBM Thinkpad X31. It does very well with SuSE 9.1 on it. The only thing I haven't tried is the modem because I don't need it. I also haven't messed around playing dvd's on the system. Otherwise, even the built-in IBM 802.11/a/b/g wireless Just Worked. We're also thinking about getting some Compaq 1000's (something like that) for a laptop program at my kid's school and we're going to try SuSE 9.1 on them, too. Can't give you first-hand info on those yet. I love my Thinkpad. Malke -- "And that's how we learned our lesson!" - Bender
