What is a good used, cheap laptop that will run Linux? I vaguely remember
that there were some laptops that gave all sorts of problems getting Linux up
and running (was it Dell because they were cutting corners on hardware to
keep costs down?). So, more importantly than what is the best, what should
be avoided.
