I just found this laptop from Lenovo (maker of IBM Thinkpads) http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/systemconfig.runtime.workflow:LoadRuntimeTree?sb=:00000025:00001430:&smid=5D3D13908B314242BD226E9BF4C1A1D It comes with Susi Linux. I am thinking of getting one, then trying Ubuntu on it. If I have problems with Ubuntu I can fall back to the Susi. Looks like a decent laptop at a reasonable price ~ $700 BobLQ BobLQ -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
