In my experience with an R61, Thinkpads come pretty close (with the Intel wireless card and firmware from non-free). Stay away from the memory card reader option for "perfect" (the memory stick support won't work, although SD should). I don't know on the modem; I never have a need to use it. Some of the keys are a little odd/non-working (volume buttons particularly). - Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
