Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I am starting to look into buying a subnotebook for the purpose of running FreeBSD and would like to get some input/advice. What kind of luck have people had with notebooks (and subnotebooks in particular)? From looking through the FAQs and sources, there doesn't seem to be a lot of PCMCIA support (although there is power management support!). What about PCMCIA modems (most subnotebooks don't have builtins)? Does anyone have PCMCIA modem drivers? Any help in wasting my money greatly appreciated. Mark
