Subject: Successful OpenBSD 3.4 Install on a Gateway 400VTX Laptop

I have attached the spec sheet for the Gateway 400VTX laptop which I
successfully installed OpenBSD 3.4 on last night. The install went very
smoothly, the only minor "hiccup" was in configuring X, but that was more
likely my problem and not an OpenBSD one!

Love the simplicity and security of OpenBSD. I am new to the *BSD world,
but I am happy that I have made the jump!

Keep up the good work.

Timothy L. Watt
