Looks like my 'old' laptop of nine months has died and is being replaced
with an Acer Aspire 1804WSMi (under warranty, of course).

Has anyone got any experience of FBSD on one of these? Spec is one of the
following:

Aspire 1804WSMi  	 	Intel® Pentium® 540 processor (3.2GHz, 800MHz FSB),
Microsoft® Windows® XP Home Edition, 512MB (2*256) DDR, 100GB HDD,
DVD-SuperMulti, 17" WXGA Acer CrystalBrite TFT display, ATI MOBILITY
RADEON X600 with 128MB of external DDR video, 56Kbps modem, 10/100/1000
LAN, Integrated wireless LAN (802.11b/g), Bluetooth™, Li-Ion battery,
5-in-1card reader, Microsoft® Works

Aspire 1804WSMi 		Intel® Pentium® 540 processor (3.2GHz, 800MHz FSB),
Microsoft® Windows® XP Media Centre Edition, 512MB (2*256) DDR, 100GB HDD,
DVD-SuperMulti, 17" WXGA Acer CrystalBrite TFT display, ATI MOBILITY
RADEON X600 with 128MB of external DDR video, 56Kbps modem, 10/100/1000
LAN, Integrated wireless LAN (802.11b/g), Bluetooth™, Li-Ion battery,
5-in-1card reader, TV Tuner, Remote Control

I'm a bit worried about the screen being WXGA. Does Xorg support this?
Things like the remote control(?), card reader, modem don't exactly worry
me too much...

Any experiences gratefully received,

Jon
