Re: which laptop with these features?



I have an Inspiron 8000 currently running Debian -SID  and i havent had any
problems with it.

I have Xfree 4.2 w/ KDE 3 working good
the sound card is a maestro 3 which is supported in the newer kernels
8x sony CDRW in the fixed bay

Also were you looking at the mobile Radeon for the 8200? didnt they give you
an option for a M4 by chance?
ITs been awhile since i looked at Dell's site and see what they have for the
8200 line
