I just bought a laptop the other day (a Sony Vaio, if anyone care; if you need to know how to run X on a PCG-XG29, I can now tell you). I also bought a dongle-less Linksys PCMCIA 10/100 ethernet adapter (the PC-CARD eject button is a close fit, but it works in the top slot). The interesting thing about this is that the first thing I see when I open the Linksys box is a "TurboLinux Workstation 6.0 Lite" CDROM. (!) These Linux guys are doing some clever marketing, and FreeBSD needs to do the same, or it's going to lose ground to the much more aggressive Linux advocacy.
