I would prefer FreeBSD, if not for the lack of support (yet) for
802.11n wireless chipsets (don't really like USB wifi poking out of
the laptop!). FreeBSD used to work fine on my old Dell Inspiron 9400
(no longer manufactured), except for the card reader, which I never
needed. I am waiting for support for wireless-n chipsets (and CUDA, if
I'm lucky!) for my Alienware m11x (ndis did not work out)
