Laptops / Games / Fedora

[Vikas.Bhasin at britishairways.com]

I'd advise you not to go fo Dell laptops. I have one from Dell and its now 
3 months.  Their after sale services are pathetic. I have some serious 
problems with the hardware and noone at Dell support seems to bother. 

They'd taken my system once for repairs, kept it for more then a week and 
returned only partially repaired. Now they are giving a dumb ear to my 
calls. My friend also had a Dell laptop whose display card was burnt out 
after just 2 weeks, he also had to undergo lots of trouble getting it 
repaired. I'd never recommend Dell products to anyone now. IBM would be a 
much better choice.

Regards,
Vikas

Dell Latitude C600 Addendum:

The built-in modem is a Winmodem, which wouldn't work for me in RH9.
Haven't tried it in FC1.  I gave up trying to get it to work.  I just
keep an old external modem handy if I need it. This is almost never
since the built-in eth0 is fully supported, and I have a broadband
connection to the internet.
