This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --Boundary_(ID_H9XF5vrM0by5vKJAawiziw) Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Hi All, I'm looking to purchase a laptop to run FreeBSD. Other than the best price performance, I'm looking for troublefree installation and native support for all the hardware. My main requirement is native openGL driver support to take advantage of the 3D hardware acceleration. I'm leaning toward the Dell Dimension line of laptops, if you can recommend a better --name brand-- machine please let me know as well. Also do you know if any vendors that sell laptops preinstalled with FreeBSD? Thanks in advance, ~koroush --Boundary_(ID_H9XF5vrM0by5vKJAawiziw) Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2715.400" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi All,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm looking to purchase a laptop to run FreeBSD.
