Screenshot
Here's the screenshot from my laptop.
[img=http://img308.imageshack.us/img308/8247/screenshot9oj.th.png]
Gateway M305CRV.
Intel Celeron Mobile 2.4 GHz (256 kB L2 Cache, 400 MHz FSB)
512 MB RAM (266 MHz)
Intel Integrated Graphics 64 MB Shared
15" XGA LCD Screen
Trendnet external Wi-Fi PCMCIA Card 54 Mbps
Dual boot Windows XP Home and SuSE Linux 10.0
Linux runs excellently on my laptop. No problems at all. Much faster than any version of Windows.
PS: I haven't yet been able to get 1024 X 768 resolution on my laptop.

I hate to 'burst your bubble', but screenshots from a laptop can be made to look exactly like screenshots from a desktop, and vice-versa. Same resolutions, same environments, etc. Now, if you want to post a picture of your computer, I can see that being of some relevance. Also notice that the 'Post your screenshot' thread is in General, people posting screenshots in this forum are not actually giving technical support, I feel that this is not worth a post count.
