Have a look at this web site.

http://tuxmobil.org/mylaptops.html

It list a wide range of laptops and information on installing Linux OS including Debian.

I recommend IBM Thinpad with Etch. I have an T43 and R50, both work. The fingerprint reader on the T43 does not work very well but then it doesn't work well under the shipped OS either.

Hello Steve -

I second Thinkpad.

So, you were able to get the fingerprint reader working. I haven't even tried yet. I'm interested in getting the ThinkVantage tools to work on the Debian partition. Have you been able to do this?

Happy holidays,

Sebastian
