My ancient ThinkPad has start emitting sparks, so I need to
get a new laptop.  I would, if possible, like it to run plan9
in hardware rather than emulation.  The "supported hardware"
list on the wiki looks a little out of date.  Anyone have
recent experience to share?  My priorities, in decreasing order
of importance are: weight, cost, plan9 compatibility, battery
life, and speed.  The thing also needs to boot FreeBSD, but
I trust that anything plan9-compatible will satisfy that
requirement.
