Again, it's much too early to commit to any specifics of hardware support, particularly specific models of laptops.

That being said, Be is very, very interested in having the BeOS run on Intel Architecture laptops, and it is certainly our intention to try to support them. There were rumors (which we will neither confirm nor deny ;-) that Be was showing the BeOS running on a Hitachi laptop at Comdex in November (oh, all right, we did it :-).

Be's own VP of Sales and Marketing is getting tired of carrying 275 pounds of demonstration equipment (and the requisite cases to protect it) through airports and subways, so you can be confident that we've got internal motivation to make this work. ;-)
