Many people run FreeBSD on laptops.
This is the best link to get started: http://gerda.univie.ac.at/freebsd-laptops/
I run 5.2.1-RELEASE on an IBM T30. The only outstanding issues for me are: acpi (I just use apm) and the integrated Cisco Aironet Wireless (it worked with FreeBSD 4.9/10, but broke with 5.2.1 -- I went back to using my Orinoco PCMCIA wireless card, which works like a champ.)
Good luck!

I have a few PIII IBM and Toshiba laptops and was wondering about
putting FreeBSD on them. I have installed several Linux versions on them
(Caldera 2.4/3.1 - RH - SuSe - Mandrake) with minimum re-comps for
functionality on the hardware.
How does FreeBSD act on laptops any known issues? _______________________________________________
