Hello,
I have a request for information about the current crop of Thinkpads.
I've been using Linux on a Thinkpad 760, and now on a 770Z for several
years, and have had pretty good experience (often because of help
from this mailing list). But now I need a new laptop, and since I've
had good fortune with Thinkpads, my leanings are to stay with them.
However, my needs now require that I have good accelerated graphics,
and I'm not sure what IBM offers in this regard in their laptops.
So, any advice? If there is a thinkpad with accelerated graphics,
how does it compare with say the best Dell? Or should I just get a
Dell?
Thanks,
Bill
