Laptop Selection For FreeBSD

Old personal notes, late 2004 or early 2005. Not written for public, but for me, but might be of passing interest.

Hardware Compatibility Checking

Whole Laptop

Older laptops already sold in high volume by big international firms, are more likely listed than laptops new on the market, & laptops sold in lower volume by local national companies.

FreeBSD compatibility lists.

Ask salesman if it supports Linux, & if so with what problems

Use A Search Engine & specify Laptop Model Number & word FreeBSD or Linux
