Laptops that Linux likes?

I've gotten fedora to install on a dell laptop no problems, and the card was
supported. It was a dell enspiron 5150 but other people have had problems.
I'd say your best bet is to look at some models you want then go to
www.linux-laptop.net
And look around

Hi all. I am needing to get a laptop pretty soon for college...For now what
I am going to need to do unfortunately, is to duel-boot Linux and windblows.
And I can't get a Dell laptop bc as far as I know, the Broadcom nics are not
supported...Someone correct me if I am incorrect on this? Anyway, does
anyone know of any good laptop vendors that maybe will sell you a laptop
with no OS? I've seen them on pricewatch but there are not a lot of specs on
them. When I think of Linux laptop vendor...Pogolinux comes to mind. However
when I looked on their website there was no mention of laptops...Maybe this
has perhaps changed?
