I've been shopping around for Laptops that come with either Linux
preinstalled or no OS at all....  So far I found a few resonable ones
that have linux in them, but they run either a celery or a PII/III.
PIIIs suck altogether, and with the exception of Sony VAIOs Pentiums +
Laptop tends to = over heat problem.  I know a few companies make AMD
laptops..... but I can't seem to find them.

Anyone know if the lower resource drag from Linux.... might make the
pentiums heat up less... or if anyone makes a laptop with a pentium in
it besides Sony that keep really kewl... but also make them with linux
(Dell makes linux based notebooks......  they get too hot?).   I've been
shopping at linuxmall.com and stuff and can't seem to find much.
