    We are thinking of purchasing two Sony VAIO GRT100 laptops for work. The
    machines will come with Windows XP and other software but we will be
    installing SuSE 9.0 in a dual boot configuration, possibly running Windows via
    Wine on the system.

    The systems come with 256 MB of RAM. Do we need more for this configuration?
    Other specs ...
    2.4 GHz Pentium 4 Processors
    32 MB Dedicated Video RAM
    40 GB Hard Drives
    3 USB ports
    IEEE 1394 (Firewire)
    Type III (2 x type I / II)
    1 Memory Stick Slot

    Does anyone see a potential conflict with what we have in mind?
    Has anyone had any issues with any Sony VIAO machines and SuSE?

    Thanks,
