[nycbug-talk] laptop?

I'm shopping for a laptop to use OpenBSD on, likely dual booting with
Windows XP (yeah, I know).

Two things -

1) http://www.openbsd.org/i386-laptop.html is so woefully out of date
and thin on info. It should be more like http://jcs.org/laptops/ and
have tons more info. NYC BUG's dmesg is helpful, but I think more
people sharing this info would be great. Were there a need I'd even
possibly help in compiling and updating that info.

2) If anyone has a laptop they no longer need I'd prefer to give my
money to people in this community rather than shifty_dude at aol.com. I'm
not a big resource hog, so machines with as little as 256mb of RAM are
optional. Let me know how much you want, or we can figure it out.

Thanks,

Josh
