Greetings,
I contribute financially to help out with the Plan9 work on SDF and have
two virtual servers running, however,
I do not have Plan9(9Front) running on any hardware at home.
Looking at the 9Front Plan9-Haters book, there are alot of good
suggestions for laptops.
Which models really stand out as good canidates for a Plan9 install?
Thanks!

basically, thinkpads. if you care about display quality, look for ips (or "flexview") screens. vmx[0] will only work on newer machines.
