I have a DELL Latitude E5430 and it looks like a fair deal of the 
hardware is similar:

$ dmesg | grep iwn
iwn0: <Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300> mem 0xf7e00000-0xf7e01fff irq 17 
at device 0.0 on pci2

$ grep intel /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep "HD Gra"
[    25.914] (--) intel(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) HD 
Graphics 4000


Wi-fi and graphics are what I am usually most worried about on laptops 
and both of these work fine under 9.3-RELEASE.

The only thing I am missing is the ability to change the backlight 
level. It's probably possible but I haven't figured out how yet.
