List,
Does anyone know of a laptop, preferably an older model so it's
inexpensive, (It doesn't have to be very fast.), that is:
1) FreeBSD friendly.
2) Isn't a portable skillet?
3) Is physically sturdy. Not bulletproof, but not creaking, sagging plastic.
My dell inspiron 9400 works quite well, except for
1. Card reader
2. Suspend/resume
It does get a bit warm, but not more than when I am running windows.
Battery time was also pretty much the same
It's no longer in production, but i believe the replacements are the
inspiron 1720 and the xps 1730
I am not sure if the newer 4965 802.11n wifi chipset that are
currently available would be supported, but you could opt for the 3945
