New laptop, new toys.

[Carl Yost Jr]

I have one here for work with built in Ethernet. Only problem I have had in 18 months with it is one of the three USB ports loosened up. I have it Dual Booted with XP Pro / Redhat 9. Everything seems to work fine. Yet it is not a Centrino processor, but an AMD :).
