Having said that, I haven't tried any of them. Only the consumer lines come with Ubuntu and I am using a few of their commercial jobbies. But I put Ubuntu on them and they all work so I know they can. STAY AWAY from smaller than normal laptops. As cheap as laptops are, these are cheaper. You probably already know this but get lots of RAM. Good luck. -- ThermionicEmissions - the blog http://www.lockergnome.com/leftystrat ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
