I have successfully instantiated a Dell Latitude D630 with FreeBSD 10. Its wireless adapter is supported. All other components (such as regular network, audio and docking station) also work as expected. However, that is a quite "outdated" machine, but this definitely does _not_ imply that it's useless. I made it run Gnome which (in retrospect) was a stupid decision. ;-) Other older devices, such as IBM Thinkpad (now Lenovo) models T60p, R61i and R500 also work good with FreeBSD. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
