[Tfug] Laptop Purchase

[Nathan England]

Not a bad idea, and I appreciate it. Thankfully though, the T500 has been
around long enough, and I know several people with them and all the hardware
is supported out of the box, whether with the ATI graphics or the Intel. So
I am quite confident it will work like a charm.

But I will continue looking about the T510. I am not making the purchase
until this weekend, so I will decide by then. I am, so far, letting the
better resolution of the T500 guide my judgement. I much prefer 1680x1050 to
the smaller 1600x900 since I will be primarily using this for code editing
and compiling.

I have been spoiled using the latest kdevelop on a Dell XPS One, 23" LCD
with a 1680x1050 resolution. I love it!
