I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the College of William and Mary. I have been using Linux and open source products since ~2000. I have been using Linux on my laptops since 2002. Currently I am using Ubuntu 7.04 on two laptops:
Dell Inspiron 600M (Intel Pentium M Centrino, 512MB RAM), posted here: LaptopTestingTeam/DellInspiron600m
- Sony PCG-FXA53 (AMD AthlonXP, 512MB RAM)
If you have questions regarding those two laptops, feel free to contact me. I will try to help as much as I can.

Below are the list of open issues from using Ubuntu 8.10 with the two laptops above.
Dell Inspiron 600M/Latitude D600
- Autodetect-wireless still doesn't work with /etc/network/interfaces because the new hal suspend script (/usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-power-suspend-linux) uses pm-utils, and pm-utils seems to not bring down/up the network interfaces at all.
Trouble authenticating to WPA2 enterprise network. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpasupplicant/+bug/304126; workaround exists.
- WPA supplicant still has trouble maintaining connection. Eventually the connection failed.
VAIO laptop
- The delayed start after laptop resume from suspend is still there, but happened randomly and the delay time varies
