FWIW:

I have an IBM?Lenovo Z60m. It's a desktop replacement laptop with a 2Gz 
Pentium chip, 15" widescreen, 2G of memory and a 100G SATA HD.
The HD is easy to get to so I can easily install FC6 on one HD, Debian on 
another, etc.

Also it has a HD tray or adapter that allows me to insert a 2nd HD in the 
tray, pull out the CD/DVD drive and insert the HD tray. I have a 2nd 100G hd 
which is a single 100G filesystem for my databases, VM's, etc...

FC6 works great on it, although the PPTP client tool for FC6 has some issues 
and its ctritical for me so I'm now running FC5 with no issues...
