i have another issue that has more to do with freebsd on the new and
lost cost notebook computers i had heard of. how many and which ones
work best with our flavor of BSD. turns out that sometimes things-ubuntu
fail, and i need something failsafe and with a keyboard. i'll explain
later, but if i can use a lightweight computer that has audio with the
kde apps, i can create a reasonably priced tts or speech synthesizer that
would be accessible to a great many people. instead of the $8-9 kilobuck
windose devs.
anybody know?

Aloha Gary,
Agree that that any Ubunto OS is bad on notebooks. I have an HP Mini
1000 that I have network issues with because Ubunto barfs up any static
network settings.
HP Tech Support gave me advice to replace it with FreeBSD 7.2. Try it
from a flash drive first to test everything then replace the Ubunto.
I hear some people on the list have FreeBSD on Asus Eee net books and it
is working well.
aloha!
is there a particular url[s], or should i just google?
lots of miscellaneous questions that the websites may be
able to answer.

There was a big discussion on this list about a month back about laptops.
You can search for answers on our FreeBSD list or on Google.
Consumer reports also had a discussion in their magazine last month.
Many of the net book sellers are now putting Linux OS on them. But not
all models. New Egg, Comp USA (on line) Tiger Direct etc.
