Laptops [ edit ]
Before 2002 - Poor to OK
2002-2005 - OK to Good
2005-2009 - Good to Very Good
After 2009 - Poor to OK
Be aware that drivers support on native is usually a few years or more behind linux, MacOS(TM) and Windows(TM).
Dell Latitude D-series laptops - high quality business class machines, well supported in Aros, easy to replace wifi card (thinkpads require bios hacking)
Toshiba Satellite Pros like the A40 and above (not tecra) for some atheros wifi support
For the tiny carry anywhere, the first incarnation of Acer Aspire netbooks
puppy 214X, 215CE and host AROS on top. AROS can exist on a Windows(TM) install as well. See here for more information Linux hosted and Windows hosted with downloads here AROS download page

Netbook [ edit ]
One of the better options if re-partitioning of the hard disk is not suitable or wanted is to go with AROS hosted i.e. run a small linux distro and host AROS on top. AROS can exist on a Windows(TM) install as well. See here for more information Linux hosted and Windows hosted with downloads here AROS download page
installation needs an USB optical drive or an USB pen drive (see below)
PC with CD or DVD to install to a USB pendrive for boot purposes on a netbook
SD card sometimes can boot like Dell 2100, EeePC 1001P, ASUS EeePC 900, acer aspire one d150, MSI Wind U100,

Motherboard [ edit ] Since 2001, a growing number of motherboards (now a very large percentage) have added functionality implemented on the motherboard meaning that less PCI, AGP and PCI-E slots are now used or appear.
Most Intel Atom and equivalent AMD Fusion CPUs are faster than Intel P3s but still some way short of P4 or Dual Core performance.
Late 2002, USB2.0 added and slightly better AROS sound support (AC97) appeared
2002-2005 and still, to a limited extent, ongoing bad capacitors
Late 2003, ATX PSUs moved from 5V to 12v rails BEING IMPORTANT (extra 4pin on motherboard for CPU)
Late 2005, PCI Express replaced AGP and HDAudio replaced AC97
Late 2007, ATX PSUs added extra 12V PCI-E connectors and 4+4pin for CPUs
