 Which OS are you using on your notebook, FreeBSD / Linux or MAC ?
 Also, can you tell us the hardware, Sony / HP etc..
 
Right now I use Mac OSX on my MacBook Pro and FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE on my
IBM/Lenovo T60 Notebook.

The only issue I have with FreeBSD is the configuration for
suspend/resume and battery lifetime (the big battery lasts for ca. 3,5
hours).
Everything else works fine. 

I have been thinking about FreeBSD on the Macbook Pro dual booting (I
need Mac OSX for photography software), but I am not sure if the
hardware will be supported that well.

Cheers,
Arvid

I use a ~/.newsauth with tin here. Just create that file with
newsserver.host.com password username
in it. The password has to be set first, then the username. Strange, but
it works.
