Dell Precision m4700
No Linux information for this one, i use it for gaming with Windows. It boots with Linux, and everything seems to work on a short glance.
As a gaming machine it was astonishingly capable. Even though it was already a few years old, the card was in the lower high-end region when it was new. Still a decent mid range machine. And not even too expensive. And still very portable.
Over all, i really, really liked this machine. Ultimately, this was the machine that led me to buy the Precision 7550 several years later.
