I'm thinking of buying a laptop (fairly high end), on which I  want to
run, amoungst other things, Linux.

Which brand has the best hardware support by Linux?

I guess that means the video display, sound, PCMCIA and what else to
worry about???

Good Linux support is my highest priority, and I want to get it right.
