Those who have recently purchased laptops and are running linux properly on them, please give their suggestions and opinions for lappys that install linux out of the box. Last time Krish and his team had a tough time getting linux up on 102 ggc with dual core processors. So this time we are playing safe.
IBM Thinkpads are known to work out of the box with all the hardware detected (except for, of course internal modems) and working properly with common distributions. I would recommend several R series models available.
Their wireless and their video hardware GL (at least) don't work without proprietary software being installed.
