I have an S6010; it's well supported except that ACPI handling was $!@@!$#$#@$@. That seems to have been fixed by a BIOS upgrade. If I were looking for a new laptop, I'd look at Lifebooks first. I haven't tried installing freebsd since I upgraded to the unbroken BIOS, though. I mean to, in my copious spare time ;) Arnt
