List,

Does anyone know of a laptop, preferably an older model so it's
inexpensive, (It doesn't have to be very fast.), that is:

As I mentioned in another thread, I just bought a Lenovo S10 with Atom processor 512k cache and 1G memory, 10+ screen, feels very solid, best scratch pad I've ever used and cost 399 dls.

I haven't put unix on it. I'm probably going to buy another. I gave this one to my wife for her iTunes and iPhone (cheaper than MAC :( ) and while setting it up I was very pleasantly surprised at how solid it was and with great performance under XP that comes with it.

ed

1) FreeBSD friendly.
2) Isn't a portable skillet?
3) Is physically sturdy. Not bulletproof, but not creaking, sagging plastic.


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
