Mandriva-user Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 Can someone tell me which one to day is the best labtop around for any linux systems? Thank you for your time and help. Mandrake-user Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeeDubb Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 Dell has a history of laptops playing well with linux in general. For best results, look for laptops with nvidia chipsets for video, and avoid internal 56k modems as they are very hit and miss. There are numerous websites dedicated to the use of linux on laptops. Just google for linux laptop and you will find everything you want to know and more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devries Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 (edited) http://www.linux-laptop.net/ Here's a lot of information. I doubt though there is a 'best' laptop. It depends on how much you want to spend, what you going to use it for etc etc. Edited September 7, 2004 by devries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulSe Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 Aye, these days there is not a 'best'. Although IMHO Apple can't be beaten. Even for Linux, the ppc distros are great, just a few hitches with airport and sleep states, that's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
