I can understand wanting a high-res display, but do you need exactly
1920x1080? In my case it would be nice as I connect my laptop quite
often to the TV, and having different resolutions makes some things more
complicated then they should be.
I can't add much. It sounds nice to have a shared resolution with consumer/presentation media products.
Personally I would go with a ThinkPad anytime (I specifically did not
say Lenovo, because their non-ThinkPad stuff is not so good).
Will notebooks standardize on 16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratio?
I think it would be best if you can test the laptop with a Debian Live.
This is a sure way, but would exclude those compatible after some hacking :-)
Regards,
Andrei
