Hi, I'd like to get some recommendations for a newer (i5 or better)
laptop or possibly netbook(slower is okay I guess).

Obviously one that will run Haiku nativity.

Just avoid nvidia video cards, VESA only here and it doesn't even find
my panel's native resolution...

For what it's worth.. if you wanna get in on the ground floor,
the new Radeon HD driver  i've been working on is making big jumps in
functionality as of late.

Sean tested a IGP Radeon HD 3000 IGP that now works as of r42925...
