Well, to summarize the hardware:
intel centrino with a Marvel Yukon 2 ethernet adapter (linux sk98/sky2 driver), standard centrino wlan (i doubt I will need it), 1024 MB Ram, a S-ATA HDD and a supercool (attention: irony) ati x600se with something like 256 MB Ram (dont ask me, if those are really 256). (Works on linux via ati and framebuffer drivers)
