laptops (Was: Re: No Go Lenovo)

[Boland, John]

i've bought a couple of laptops from emperorlinux.com.

the service has been great and everything works regardless of how funky
the hardware is.  the sell a bunch of different type of laptops,
lightweight to so damn large you need the governator to carry them.

This thread was good for a morning chuckle :-)

On a related note, I've been looking at the Panasonic Toughbooks,
specifically the lightweight (3lb) one.  Does anyone have first hand
experience running linux on one?  Linuxlaptops.com says they mostly
work, except NdisWrapper is needed for wireless, which I sorely want to
avoid.

Is there a list somewhere of laptops that don't need NdisWrapper (or
similar
hack) for any built-in functionality?

Thanks,
Matt
