[PLUG] Linux Notebook recommendations

[Eric House]

I have a Dell Latitude E6500 (bought refurbished from outlet.dell.com)
that's running Ubuntu "Lucid" flawlessly and without requiring any
non-free drivers etc.  As a bonus the copy of Win7 it came with
installed without problems inside VirtualBox.
