Does it?

If so, which ones?  I expect I'll buy a new notebook in the coming
months and I'd prefer one which works without non-free software.

ObTopic: I think this is a question of degree, not as black/white as
some suggest.  I feel that Nokia-support is inappropriate, but other
fellowship-problems are more of a blocker to me, so I'm probably not
the target audience for the raffle.
