| One more clue you could add to laptop-detect might be to check for a
| "Mobile" processor.  I bet you can simply grep for "Version: Mobile" and
| get that.  There are "desktop replacement" laptops that are not using
| mobile CPU's or chipsets.  I guess that checking for a battery is the
| most likely test to succeed in the most laptops.

Given that you can get normal mainboards which take Pentium-M CPUs (as
well as the fact that the Athlon-M are regular socket A CPUs), just
looking for «Mobile» will give you a lot of false positives.
