Notebook Recommendations

[Ben Novack]

It's Intel Centrino, not an AMD chip, but I'm thrilled with my Dell
Latitude D600; Ubuntu detected everything perfectly and set up battery
management, wifi, etc without a hitch. You won't find a Dell reseller
because Dell only does catalog (ie, online and phone) ordering - you
just order direct from www.dell.com.
