Beside the dependence on the binary blob, the open-source radeon driver is  
really dog slow compared to fglrx. At least on an AMD E350. Even with fglrx  
the integrated ATI HD 6310 will perform at mediocre level. I would rather  
have a look at either laptops with Intel or NVidia chipset although some  
variants of NVidia (I guess they are called Optimus) do not work as  
stressfree as a normal NVidia GPU.
