I agree with
Lee. My experience is that you cannot tell by a list of
what's in the machine. You have to use it to find out.
or build it. assembling your laptop is a the only way to not pay Microsoft for a copy of
XP, and allows the opportunity to put in components you know there are
open/free/good/working drivers for. check out the barebones notebooks from ASUS and MSI..
Even if you build it you have no idea if it will be usable for low
latency until you try it. There's no way to know ahead of time that a
machine does not have the ACPI/SMM bug for example.
