When the following phrase is searched in Google

laptop sold as freebsd loaded


there are not any useful links .


If you search the following phrase in Google

laptop sold as linux loaded

you will find many links about seller companies .


It seems that  a possible way to find a FreeBSD loadable laptop is to
buy a Linux loadable or loaded laptop , and  then install onto a
suitable FreeBSD for you . It may be very likely that FreeBSD will work on
such a
laptop . Personally I do not know anything about any kind of laptops ,
because
up to now I did not need any one .
