Re: debian(izeable) laptop

Particulary if you want to support having linux available without mswindows since they've recently started making it available. Sure, it's Ubuntu, not Debian but it's definitely a step in the right direction. And no microsoft tax. And if you do put pure Debian on it, you have a fully working something to compare with, identify proprietary drivers required, etc.

Personally, I've been running Ubuntu on my Inspiron 8600 and it set up all the hardware just fine. I run pure Debian in a chroot when I need it.
