Hi,

I use RH6.1 on a Sony Vaio N505x. Video ok at 1024x768. CDROM sometimes
works. Floppy is USB and does not yet ( although I have yet to try RH7.0 ).

When you buy the laptop with Win98 pre-installed, it has two partitions, you
can install Linux into the top partition and dual-boot ( if you want to )

Standard battery only lasts an hour. The laptop is typically Sony stylish
and *so* thin.
