linux friendly laptops

[Borden Rhodes]

As an owner of an Acer laptop, I would recommend staying
away from them at all costs.  Although I have been able to
get Dapper to work on my Acer 4001 box, it's taken a lot of
command-line work and even still half of the stuff on the
system doesn't work like it did in Windows (OpenGL, for
example).  When I contacted them to get specs so I could
follow the How-tos, they were very unhelpful and made a
point of saying that they never intend to provide any Linux
support.

Live and learn!
