I have Acer Aspire 4736 (Available in my country, don't know about other
countries) and each and every piece of hard-wares are detected by both
Fedora 11 and Ubuntu 9.04.

Except WLAN (I don't have access to it) everything is working fine.
I would say Acer laptops have much more compatibility with Linux.
