Hello everyone,

I'm planning for my possibly first laptop to replace my PC/workstation which currently run dualboot Suse Linux 9.3 Pro/Windows 2k.

My two questions first before the somewhat long background below:

1) Suggestions to "state of the art" powerful, multimedia laptop models or mobile, graphical workstations suited for Suse Linux 9.3 Pro?

2) For me it looks like Linux currently more shortcomings on laptops than on desktops. I would therefore like to hear experiences +/- and suggestions with regards to Suse Linux 9.x support on laptops?

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.
