Agreed, i have been running Linux on my Thinkpad A20p for over 7 months
now, 24/7 as it is my main desktop and devel box, just too sweet a
machine (even most of my friends whom are hard-core gamers drool at @
Q3A running with full GL on it ;)

Allthough i had great suggest previously on a Toshiba Satellite
4090XDVD.

Come to think of it.. i've never really had problems with hardware on
laptops, dunno ;)
