Well, laptops are hard, one model working doesn't necessarily mean that another
by the same company will. That said, my current laptop is a Sony VAIO TR3A
(the small one with the built-in wireless). Most things work with it but there
are at least two issues. First, I've never actually tried putting it to sleep,
and second, the BIOS does not have a VGA mode that is able to use the full width
of the screen (Why Sony didn't supply the correct mode is beyond me). There
is a hack for the second one that requires hacking the ram copy of the BIOS
but I have not had time to mess with it.
