    I've been looking at buying the Compal JHL90 from Rizeon, but they won't support the use of XP on it, as they don't have a set of drivers. Has anyone here successfully installed and configured XP on one?

    Thanks,
    Peter

    JHL90 is still in pre-order, but there will be XP drivers.

    Not 10 minutes after you wrote this I got an email from Rizeon saying:
    Good stuff - now to convince myself build quality will be satisfactory, having got used to a Dell Inspiron 8200 and its amazing ruggedness. I've seen an IFL92 which was a little plastic-y in feel for my tastes...
