recommendations for laptop and desktop

2011-07-12 Thread Zoran Kolic
Comes a time to ask again and again the same question.
More I read, less I know. Just as I found that candida-
te for my new laptop, dell latitude 13 comes with anti-
glare screen and all hardware well supported, forums
reveal that it's 320gb hard drive heats a lot. It makes
vostro v13 better runner, but...
How sounds the idea to have a place on freebsd site for
such kind of data/wiki? Laptop recommendations should
include new models only, since older ones are not easy to
find in usable condition. Also, making a go for home
node, cold and quiet box, with parts fine under freebsd
is not so obvious. Especially for newer graphic chips.
It shows that my first idea to get cold phenom II on the
integrated mobo fails on almost all parts.
Yep, some kind of wiki, saying phenom to use under 8.2
to be cold and chip to find for amd mobo to take small
amount of power might be...
At last, sad thing is that only before mentioned dell
comes supported and with matte screen. What is the box
you would recommend, not going deep into past decade?
Best regards all

There is this list for laptops:

See the recent thread on the freebsd-mobile list with subject Laptop 
recommendations?

Perhaps you already know this site (http://laptop.bsdgroup.de/freebsd/)? The 
comment parts sometimes include relevant info, such as fan alwas running.

As to the last question, I am rather (very) fond of my Thinkpad R500 running 
FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE. Thinkpads in general seem enjoy a high reputation ...

Cheers,

 log2() log2f have been MFCd to 8-STABLE (r216210 and r216210) but are

 This breaks several ports. Any plans?
