Hardware: LinuxCertified LC2430 Laptop Review

The laptop comes pre-loaded with Red Hat/Fedora Linux but on demand LinuxCertified can also install Debian or Linspire Laptop Edition, and there is an optional dual-boot install with Windows XP. My laptop came with Fedora Core 2 and later LinuxCertified sent me an upgraded laptop with Fedora Core 3 Test-3 on it. FC is working well on this laptop, however, in order to achieve this, LinuxCertified is using specially-compiled kernels, additional drivers and other patches. Among the patches/additions included are SoftwareSuspend, some acpi scripts, XBindKeys and Synaptics (touchpad driver for X11) and some multimedia packages.
