Re: Debian on laptop

["Steve Mazurek" <steve.mazurek@gmail.com>]

I have been using Debian on refurbished Thinkpads for some time now and have had no problems (except that caused by my own ignorance of the operating system).  At this time I am on a cable internet connection but I can also use wireless connection when they are available.  A friend who is a computer professional first persuaded me to try Debian,  It's got just about every type of application you could want.

Dear Sirs,


After spending hours of reading about the Linux distributions and compatible hardware, I feel I get crazzy. I chose you because of your "Social Contract", though I'm not sure Debian is still updated, apologize, I couldn't find recent articles, I am a newbye.

Question: Could you recommend me a laptop model, with all details, which works completely, or perfectly with Debian? Including audio-video hardware, and hardware for connection to Internet (I'm on cable modem, UPC is my provider).

I don't need an expensive one. Perhaps an anti-glare, anti-reflex screen is needed because I'll have to read a lot.

Thanks,
E.S.
