Hi Gerd,

I can highly recommend the Lenovo E320. It's screen is 13 inches from memory so that makes that entire machine about 14". I have had no issues finding support for hardware and from memory almost everything worked out of the box on a recent distro. The battery life is great for a laptop that size. I have made a few modifications to my OS to increase the battery life and I can get around 6 - 6.5hrs.

I purchased mine just a few weeks ago at MSY for $599.. I'm sure they'll either do the same deal or a better one.

Good Luck,

Tom

Hi all

Has anyone recently purchased a new laptop that they can recommend with good support for Linux drivers? I am thinking 14" screen.

Cheers

Gerd
