hi gang,

i am looking at purchasing one of these notebooks:  (i am in the USA)
  - FutureTech FM88XLP2
  - MicroExpress NP8466
  - Eurocom 8500P

the first uses the ATI Rage Pro 3D 2x AGP 
the other two, the ATI Rage LT Pro 2x AGP

i have been fishing info on the support provided by the latest 
XFree86 (3.3.5 ?),
and i am still in doubt regarding support in it for the above listed 
hardware.  (found some nebulous/contradictory statements)

can somebody help clear my confusion ?   
- which hardware option is the safest bet regarding the X server(s)? 
    (if i have to go commercial, that would be OK)
- what does 'LT' stand for ? 


also, does anyone know of a reason (outside the video hardware) why i 
*should not* get any one of these notebooks ? 

BTW, is SuSE 6.3 already in the stores ?  SuSE said they would be shipping
'first week of december'...  

thanks much - josin
