I read:
Anyone bought a laptop recently & running PD smoothly under Linux?
I do, vaio z600tek (european) and an old toshiba p120 (at 22khz it's ok to experiment or ginving it some simple tasks to handle via netsend)
on the vaio basically everything works even the winmodem, see http://lo-res.org/~x/vaio.txt only drawbacks are ymfpci soundcard kind of chooses it's interrupt per buffer on the fly and 90% of the pci devices seem to be hardwired to IRQ9, looking forward to the final release of the rme pcmcia && linux driver.
of course I can enter the (somewhat crippled) bios
cheers
