[ILUG] [Not OT IMHO] Advice on a Laptop

[macada]

Hi all,

I had a macbook 13"  and it was fantastic because everything is
supported for GNU/Linux. Almost all of the distributions work really
good in this hardware. Right now I have a macbook pro and with
GNU/Linux... the situation is not like with macbook because not
everything is supported but it's not bad at all.

Ive found this... maybe will help u to select one of those.
