I've seen the vaios, they are nice and I've heard they run FreeBSD well, the only bad thing is that I've heard that they are quite fragile little things and are prone to issues after being manhandled during the normal course of travelling that most laptops should be resiliant to. I've heard nothing of the fujitsu's, I have seen them and they are nice. I'd go with Dell. :) -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
