I've yet to find a Satellite user that likes their laptop. Even when running Windows XP on it. Getting non-Windows OSes running on them tends to be a frustrating endeavor. The Satellite Pro line is just slightly better, but not much. I've heard great things about the Tecra line, although I've never used on personally. -- Freddie Cash [email protected] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
