Recommended Netbook/Laptop for Linux?

[RedvGreen]

Hi all,

I am needing a laptop/netbook for Linux - more specifically BackTrack. The BT forums couldn't be any more unhelpful if they tried.

Ideally, I require a totally compatible BackTrack install, however could settle for Debian or Ubuntu... any recommendations for the laptop?

Thanks in advance

I've had a few issues searching - they recommend Atheros Wireless chipset, yet most brands interchange between Broadcom and Atheros at a whim it seems...
