[NCLUG] Netbook/laptop reccomendation?

[Warren Turkal]

Try Dell's Linux lineup. I have been pretty happy with the previous
Linux laptop I bought for my wife from them. Here's a link that lists
most of what they have with regard to Linux:

I like to support them as they are a mainstream manufacturer
supporting Linux on the desktop. They're doing what the FOSS community
has been asking for for years.
