Is this still true? As far as I am aware nVIDIA and Intel graphics support is fine on Linux, ditto Intel wifi support. My AMD card in my dual graphics laptop is 4 years old and AMD have given up supporting it, so that's a fail compared to nVIDIA who are still supporting my 7 year old card. As for battery life, my X201 still gives about 6 hours use per charge, would Windows do any better? -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
