1) Suggestions to "state of the art" powerful, multimedia laptop models or mobile, graphical workstations suited for Suse Linux 9.3 Pro?
now, think SUSE 10.0 and go to opensuse.org, there is a list of conpatible HW

ThinkPads tend to be good. I have an R31 that works well. Also, I recently read that HP is selling some Linux loaded notebooks in Africa, so they're likely OK with Linux too.

I'll second that from James. HP are running a range of laptops preconfigured with Linux (not SuSE though, Ubuntu) in the UK market so they are probably worldwide.
Thanks for the suggestions! I searched the Opensuse Linux 10 HCL/Laptops list at http://www.opensuse.org/HCL/Laptops but could not find anything about the two highend mobile workstations that initial looked interesting from * Dell Precision M70 * Fujitsu Siemens Celsius H230 Neither a serach on Suse Portal HCL or on Novell Sertified had some information. Maybe this hardware model are too new? This surprise me, because at least Fujitsu Siemens tells in their "Insight" paper that they "early defined Linux (beside Windows and Solaris), as one of their strategic operating system, like no other vendor in Europe. Celsius workstations (like Lifebook Notebooks and Scenic PCs) are ready for use under Linux". In the datasheet for Celsius H230 both Redhat and Novell Linux is listed among the OS (certification on request). I also looked for IBM Thinkpad T42p and T43P, which according to the HCL lists above should run Linux ok. The highend TP43p is without doubt very powerful, but also (too) high priced; about twice the price or more than for the above mentioned Dell M70 and FSC H230. And from the technical specifications I am not sure if T43p really is better or not? Rgds, Terje J. Hanssen
