While there may or may not be better supported hardware from a driver perspective in other laptops, the design and construction of PC laptops compared to Macs is embarrassing.

Meh. I've owned the following Thinkpads over the 6 years - T42, T60, T61, X60, two X61s, T500, and T510.
All of them have Just Worked(TM) with Linux (inluding accelerated graphics), and out of all of them, I've had *one* hardware issue requiring a visit by a technician.

Thinkpads are not cheap, but you get what you pay for. - -- Thomas Cameron, RHCA, RHCSS, RHCDS, RHCVA, RHCX, CNE, MCSE, MCT Managing Solutions Architect 512-241-0774 office / 512-585-5631 cell / 800-451-8679 x 8417915082 bridge http://people.redhat.com/tcameron/ IRC: choirboy / AIM: rhelguy / Yahoo: rhce_guy
