Thanks, I didn't take your suggestion as anything but constructive criticism!

If it's a matter of adding:

- FreeBSD version
- PCMCIA/CardBus support
- Power management support
- Max resolution
- Comments (including XF86Config and kernel config)

I've added it in about 10 minutes. See if:

  http://www.zapatec.com/freebsd/laptop

meets what you wanted? If not, tell me what needs to be done and I can do it
very easily.

(If you have an existing entry there and want to update it, send me the
udpated info or I can remove it so you can put the new info in there)

Thanks,
Adi
