Subject:   Best laptop for FreeBSD ?

I want to get a new laptop and I'm wondering what is the 'best' 
laptop to run FreeBSD on.

I'm looking for:

   Lightweight
   Long battery life
   Minimum 1024x768 active matrix screen
   Full size keyboard
   no trackball
   1 serial port on board
   10BaseT and 802.11 built in

The IBM X and A series seem to meet most of these requirements. 

Does anyone have FreeBSD running on an IBM X or A series Thinkpad? 
Are all the network interfaces supported by existing drivers?

Thanks,

Joe
