I was referring mostly to other (including future) versions of Windows. I am not a big fan of Linux on laptop or desktop. With Windows, if Sony doesn't provide a driver- nobody will. There are some workarounds, but they are limited. Looks like I am trolling, because I don't need a large laptop and I wouldn't by Sony anyway, because I prefer "eraserhead" type pointer to a touchpad. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christian Gennerat" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Libretto" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 2:14 AM Subject: Re: [LIB] Defecting to Sony GRX316G/P4 (Built in DVD-R!!) > Date: Mon, 15 Jul 2002 08:03:03 +0200 > From: Christian Gennerat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [LIB] Defecting to Sony GRX316G/P4 (Built in DVD-R!!) > > Gennadiy Tsygan wrote: > > >Date: Sun, 14 Jul 2002 19:55:14 -0400 > >From: "Gennadiy Tsygan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Subject: Re: [LIB] Defecting to Sony GRX316G/P4 (Built in DVD-R!!) > > > >Slashdot recently had an interesting discussion about this laptop.
