I'll chime in with the chorus and say "ThinkPad" - every ThinkPad I have ever had has run Linux flawlessly - and given that IBM now has by far the largest committment to Linux of any company that manufactures laptops, it's unlikely that they would deliberately introduce any incompatibilities. In fact, if I recall correctly, not too long ago IBM was selling a T-series laptop that had some version of Linux pre-installed.
Unfortunately, there are no more ThinkPads in my future. Ever since I got my PowerBook I can't even look at another laptop.

Hello-
Can anybody recommend any laptops that work well with FC1? By "works well" I guess I mean that things like power management, sleep/awake with the closing of the lid, and (if present) video acceleration are all well supported .
Failing that, are there any to avoid?
