I have a Dell Inspiron 3000. Everything except sound works great.
My apm scheme is optimal. I suspend and resume many times a day, and my
uptime is 5 days. I left it suspended for the entire weekend without recharging
and had no problems.
I highly recommend Dells for desktop replacements. For lightweight,
the IBM and Sony offerings are really nice as well.
If any one knows how to get crystal audio working I would love to
hear about it.
