Wide graphics display.

Runs RELENG_6 quite happily, although I haven't sorted out all the
suspend-resume stuff and power-save yet.

Very happy with the system, nice and solid, good keyboard, fair price
($1100 through small biz rep). Does use juice; recommend the extra-life
battery option.=20

Hardest problem so far was prying off the little Windows sticker
