Well, I'm running Mandrake Linux 8.2 on my ThinkPad 390X now. The only reason I picked a ThinkPad to run Linux is because it has a "middle button", so I can click it to copy and paste some very long string of text.
Since IBM is dropping Linux support on ThinkPads, and the whole idea is to have a UNIX terminal on a sexy notebook, my next machine will definitely have to be an Apple iBook!
Makes sense! I doubt Apple will be dropping UNIX support for its notebooks anytime soon. *smile* It *is* FreeBSD candy coated in a super cool looking Aqua interface.
Long live UNIX! Long live sexy Apple iBooks!:)
