I run 3.3 STABLE on a Toshiba Satellite 4010CDT. I hear Toshiba is alterna-OS friendly, and i would have to agree. Hardware config was easy, with just a little extra work needed for the PCMCIA card. Display is beautiful on Xwindows. Why would you run a server on a laptop though? Wouldn't a desktop box be more reliable under heavy loads?
