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
