Me and Diane's Laptops 2 different ThinkPads one a 1400I series, my Compaq
Presario 1200 Xl112, and Diane's Latitude all Run Linux Just fine.
All 4 Laptops work well with just about any distro we have put on them. :)
I would say though I would trade both of my Laptops in for a Alien Ware or a
VooDoo as I would love to have a gamming Laptop for Unreal, and Need For
Speed Underground.
