I mean, I've always had ASUS laptops and AFAIK ASUS supports Linux (it seems you can buy a laptop with no XP preinstalled, this is not the case in Italy). But the latest laptop I bought is an Intel Centrino one and IIRC Intel supports Linux. Well, the Intel Centrino WiFi drivers/specs are not available or not released yet or the Intel 82855GM has some problems in switching LCD/CRT and in resume. Mabye have I missed something?
