My dell inspiron 9400 works quite well, except for 1. Card reader 2. Suspend/resume It does get a bit warm, but not more than when I am running windows. Battery time was also pretty much the same It's no longer in production, but i believe the replacements are the inspiron 1720 and the xps 1730 I am not sure if the newer 4965 802.11n wifi chipset that are currently available would be supported, but you could opt for the 3945 -- Gautham Ganapathy http://lisphacker.org _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
