I'm thinking about buying myself a laptop on which to run Debian.  It'd
have to be used and relatively inexpensive,  as I'm in college and have no
money.

Anyway,  I was thinking that a laptop 486 DX/4 100 with 16 megs of ram
ought to run ok,  considering that I probably won't bother trying to run X
-- I live in Emacs anyway.  My concerns are things like PCMCIA drivers and
things -- I'd need both a PCMCIA modem and an ethernet card.  Are there
problems with either of these devices in linux/Debian in general on
laptops?  Are there any other concerns I should have about running Debian
on a laptop?

                                                        Will
