New laptop, new toys.

[Dennis Ruzeski]

Linux support for Centrino technology is very limited at this point--

There's the /. story on it.

My other recommendation is to take a knoppix disk with you- Boot the cd and make sure everything is recognized by the OS.

I decided it was time to break down and buy a new laptop.  I finally 
came to the decision after I was sitting up at 2am this morning 
RESOLDERING the end to my power adapter for the 8th or 9th time (no 
kidding).

So, I'm looking at Sony Vaios.  What is the community's take on them?  
It's gonna have to have a wireless card as well, so keep that in mind.
