Toshiba Portege M400-S5032


I got a new Toshiba Tablet Laptop. Grub loader works great with option to boot from: Ubuntu, BakcTrack 4 R1, Open GEU, and Windows 7. Wireless works out of the box on Linux.
Downsides: the touchscreen works in Ubuntu, (programs that work for the tablet - Jarnal, Gournal, Xournal and GoCollab) not BackTrack or Open GEU. SD card reader doesn't work in them, sure you can get it to work, but I never use it anyways.

Overall I am happy with the performance and compatibility of it.
