I would like to get a laptop and run Debian on it. Does anyone have any recommendations for machines/manufactures to buy or avoid? Regards, Andrew Clark.
I've been very happy with my Dell Latitude. I avoided the Inspirion line, though - mainly because of the on-board winmodem.
pros: nice display & keyboard 2nd battery for extra time supports floppy & CD at the same time, and can hot-swap them APM works great cons: XFree86 only supports the neomagic chipset up to 16bpp @ 1024x768I'm still trying to figure out the sound drivers. I know it can be done, just haven't been too inspired to figure it out.
Hope this helps. Mike
