I'm looking very hard at the IBM X-Series laptop primarily for a
portable windows workstation however periodically I'll need to use unix
of somekind on it.

Would FreeBSD be functional on 266237U?  I need the basics (Network, X,
database, text editors and a compiler) though it would be nice to have
standby support and the extra power management features as well.

Thanks.

I've noticed laptop support has improved a lot since I last tried (2.2.3
or so...).

Main considerations in laptop are lots of ram (256mb), battery life must
be > 3 hours and weight should be less than 4lbs if anyone knows of a
better supported alternative.
