IBM Thinkpad R50 or 51

Hi

IBM Thinkpad R50 or 51

Will Open Suse 10.3 work on either of the above laptops?

Thanks

IBM generally work very well

Hi

Thanks for the reply.

I want to get either a R50 or R51 and from the handbook I purchased [with the DVD] - I wondered if it would be just partitioning with the ability to run windows, running the Open Suse 10.3 dvd, then Suse would run without any problems?

Is it that easy?

There are some links in the Laptop stickie specifically intended to address this sort of question. Stickie is here:
WELCOME to LAPTOP thead area - openSUSE Forums

At least oldcpu took the time to point you to the necessary part of the forum. I did read an article recently in Linux Format and IBM were reported on very well for Linux compatitbility. And if you follow the link oldcpu gave you should see what I mean

Thanks for all the replies and links

Cheers
