But I'm quite curious on this topic, and I'd like your comments = on it. For two months ago I bought this new IBM Thinkpad X31. It's a nice, = lightweight laptop, but unfortunately it's running Windows XP. I'm = getting tired of this operating system sucking up all my system = resources. So I'm planning to install FreeBSD on it. Unfortately, I'm not sure wether the Pentium M-chip and the Intel = PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B wlan nic will run. And how is X11-support, = disk-support (DMA), firewire, USB etc? Greetings, -- Anders =D8sterg=E5rd Jensen
