I recommend the Thinkpads as well. Superb laptops. I have used a T42p for
the past few months at work. The only problem with that specific model is
that it has an ATI card that requires a proprietary driver (fglrx) to get
3D acceleration, and you do that, you lose the ability to suspend-to-ram
or suspend-to-disk.
Without 3D acceleration, Ubuntu works great.
Not sure what fedora's using (i haven't looked into it closely..) but
ati hardware rendering works fine without the proprietary driver
Depends on the ATI. If it's a newer Radeon it won't work without the
proprietary driver.
guess mine is fairly old now... (Radeon9100Pro 128MB)
