Actually I take my hat of to andreas on this one, Yoper is a good laptop choice, but stick to the kernel prior to the latest, it messes up networking, it looks like the firewire is configured as a networking card. (and there are some lilo issues too, but other than that It seems like a good choice) It does most of mine pretty well I have some of the ACPI working ok, but I am wrestling with wireless under NDIS wrapper, but if I plug the prism 2 in I can get it working most of the time, but for some reason it always seems to route via my onboard ethernet on boot, even after I changed the route options. And I am too lazy to track the bug down, so I just set it up in console on each boot. So apart from having to drop my 54Mbps for 11Mbps It does what I want.

As for Linux notebooks have you considered the Compaq offering shipping with SUSE installed ?
I have heard also that the DSE laptop offerings work great running Yoper and I know from many users that they find Yoper to be the closest Linux to the MAC in Look and Feel and usability ...
