For what its worth - I have FC1 working pretty well with IBM
Thinkpad-T40. I would think any Pentium-M laptops should work
reasonably well - provided it supports APM.

Things I use:

 - APM - suspend
 - speedstep [with cpudyn]
 - wireless a/b [with madwifi driver]
 - wired networking & sound works pretty well.

This appears to be the step-forward. Intel is changing its naming
scheme to downplay MHz - and future desktop chips are planned on it.
