System 76 sells them preconfigured with Ubuntu as well. http://
system76.com/
I almost purchased one from them but I want something smaller than 14
inches; i.e. ultra light, under 4 lbs, 12" max but 10" would be even
better for travel. (and unfortunately I need a windows path for work
so I'm still looking for a machine I can dual boot rather than just
Ubuntu.)
I was just thinking about this type of "bug" this morning.
UbuntuDemon and others on the forums were all searching for laptop
recommendations. It would be nice to have a section called, "The
Community Recommends. . . " with a list of a few desktop and laptop
configurations that have been proven stable. Everything seems to be
reversed at the moment; i.e. there's a list of bugs with certain
setups but not "here's what's known to work." I found this page to
have some good notebook info as well:
