    Hi,

    I wanna buy a new laptop with a Pentium M (the newest processor from Intel
    especially for mobile computers) and install freeBSD on it with KDE. Is that
    possible ... I've heard that the architecture of the new CPU is different
    and that Unix/Linux not run on those processors. Is that true or ... and if
    it is true ... will there soon be support for the centrino-platform. I hope
    it because I need mobile computers and I love the fact that I can work
    longer with a Pentium M.

    Thx in advance

    Lesly
