I recently got a lowish-end laptop, the
HP 2000-240CA.
It has an AMD E-350 processor, which is designed for low power consumption. It does seem to run pretty cool. It doesn't have a numeric keypad.
Below I'm attaching
dmesgs for NetBSD amd64 current, and also for Linux 2.6.38.7 x86_64.
I will post an OpenBSD dmesg in the
OpenBSD Laptop Thread.
Some items of note that are not (yet) supported by NetBSD are:
* Radeon HD 6310 graphics (but VESA driver is fine)
* Realtek card reader
* Realtek RTL8188CE wireless
