I just saw an advertisement from Lidl (a cheap supermarkt chain in
Europe, at least in Germany, the Netherlands and Portugal) advertising a
"Targa Visonary 1800+" laptop for only EUR 1700. It looks like it has
just about everything you could want, except apparently pcmcia/cardbus
slots:

AMD Athlon XP1800+
512M RAM
40G disk
S3 Savage4 Graphic core up to 32M RAM shared memory
Combi cd burner/cdrom/dvd player
15,1" TFT XGA screen
Integrated 16-bit 3D stereo audio, TV-out
Internal 10/100 mbit ethernet
connections for infrared, kensington lock, modem, 1 USB, PS2/mouse port,
TV(SVideo), microphone, headphones, 1 FireWire, VGA out, serial,
parallel.

The question is of course if all this will run NetBSD (including the
more fickle things like X, sound, powermanagement).

Some searching revealed an earlier model (Targa Visionary 1300 WS) which
apparently runs Linux, albeit with some small problems. Did anybody try
NetBSD on it?

-Olaf.
