Download and burn 3-4 Live CDs - Knopix, Damn Small Linux, Feather
Linux, Morphix, etc., and then take them to the store and boot the
model you are interested in. Check lspci, glxgears, hdparm -tT
/dev/hda on all of them. Don't buy a machine that won't run all of the
Live CDs you take.

Just my 2 cents....

Talking to you from a Compaq R3070us running Gentoo and FC2/Planet - 2.6.9

Good luck,
Mark
