I have had good experiences with Dell laptops and the Inspiron series in
particular. Good XFree86 support, and the sound cards are generally
supported by the 2.4 kernel, without any clunky external drivers.
My Inspiron 4000 worked on unstable without a hitch, with only minimal
configuration. Highly recommended.

Subject: Laptop suggestions
Hello there!
I have a very brief question. I'm not that familiar at all with
Debian, I used it a while back, although not a lot, and I certainly
qualify as a GNU/Linux neophyte. Enough with the introduction.
Anyway, I've as of yet never used Debian on a laptop, and I'm
looking into picking up laptop computer, and I'm wondering if you
have any suggestions as to what I might want to pick up -- more
along the lines of manufacturers whose computers work well with the
latest version of Debian, rather than just the latest spiffy models,
since I'm not sure what I can afford.
Any personal experiences, or anything at all would be very helpful.
Pax.
