Introductory notes…
A while back, the now obsoleted Computer Compatibility List (OLD!) thread was started, and is now seriously out of date, which led me to start a new effort in February with the Computer compatibility list (old thread) thread. And up to now, I’ve been storing the new responses to a simple Google page called “Hardware List for Haiku” which I don’t think anyone can effectively see or use that well, and if people are taking the time to test and contribute, it’d be nice if they can see their efforts. And so, this thread was born. 
Where to find submitted hardware
Firstly, new hardware that comes in from the add Haiku hardware form is shared in this thread. But it’s also available at:
The Haiku Computer List page
This is a simple webpage, hosted by Google Sites, which lists submitted hardware into categories such as Desktops, Notebooks, etc. Also, please note the “Haiku Computer List” is an unofficial effort to help keep a current HCL with shared entries from the community.
The haiku-computer-list on GitHub
Text files containing submitted hardware (for entries that allow being shared on GitHub) are also available in the above GitHub repo.
All entries are freely accessible under the MIT License.
How to add new hardware…
A simple way to add new hardware is simply to use this Google Form, which guides you through several questions about your experience with Haiku.
Or, if you’re uncomfortable with using Google Forms, please paste and use the template below, then add whatever info you need over the sample info pasted below:

List of computers copied to top (February 2018 - November 29, 2018):
This top post, as of December 1, 2018, is no longer being updated, as it was becoming harder to edit. To view hardware submitted after December 1, please see either the haiku-computer-list on GitHub or the Haiku Computer List. Thank you.
Desktops/workstations:
Apple Mac Mini (A1176, 2007 model Core2Duo)
Version: Haiku R1 Beta 1 (64-bit)
Rating: Good (nearly everything works; e.g. the display, audio, ports, peripherals work, but no Wifi)
Startup medium: Internal SSD or hard drive (imaged or installed)
Started with: EFI on (no legacy/CSM support is available on this machine)
Tried boot options
Memory: 1gig

Additional notes (multi-line):
- Had to use safe video mode to get it to boot past the splash screen.
- Ethernet and WiFi both appear to work (I’m using ethernet and it works, wifi is listing networks so assuming it’s working).
- Haven’t been able to test sound so it may or may not work yet.

Mobile workstations:
Apple MacBook Pro 15" 2.2GHz Mid-2007 (MacBookPro3,1)
Version: Haiku R1 Beta 1 (32-bit)
Rating: Somewhat okay (i.e. the display works, but there’s no sound or mouse)
Startup media: Internal SSD or hard drive (imaged or installed)
Started with: I do not know what this means
Boot options: Tried boot options
Memory: 6GB
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2GHz (probably T7500 “Merom”)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT with 128MB
Additional notes (multi-line):
- Does not boot Haiku from USB, you need to use a DVD drive or extract the disk and use another computer to install Haiku onto it. In my case, I must have screwed the boot loader stuff by having two SSDs with multiple partitions, so I ended up using a secondary SSD with an Haiku R1/Beta 1 32bit install image (written using dd) to boot the system (by pressing ALT and then choosing
Windows) and the main drive to hold the partitions for both macOS and Haiku. - Sometimes, it requires two or three attempts before booting successfully, and turning on or off some boot options may help, but I could not find a pattern that would work every single time. Sometimes, the boot process seems to be frozen at the first icon, until I take out the cable of a USB mouse, then it boots.
- It uses VESA Graphics on the full internal display resolution and Wifi works OK.
- Sometimes, though, it looses wifi connection and can only get back online by rebooting the system.
- Audio output did not work in the beta, but if you update to a recent (64bit) nightly build, you can get loud audio output on earphones or external speakers.
- The internal trackpad seems to be a bit ““nervous””, clicking in small targets may be a challenge, and there is no secondary button nor scroll. Using an external USB mouse worked perfectly.
- There is no iSight camera, but I believe the internal microphone works.
- Keyboard layout for my language (Portuguese) is a work in progress, as there are some keys that need to be reconfigured.
- There is no keyboard backlight. The system is very stable overall.
- I did see a few kernel panics occasionally, but I have been able to work for long hours without any problems.

Startup medium: Internal SSD or hard drive (imaged or installed); USB media
Started from: No, legacy BIOS
Additional notes: Comes with a Windows 8 Pro license embedded useually, use this to update the BIOS, so you can install the upgraded wifi card that works with Haiku. USB bot works, installing to SATA SSD/HDD works. Except for ACPI Buttons/backlight control etc… 100% functional once the wifi is swapped. Browsers are usable but a little laggy, native and QT apps run well though on this 1.5Ghz quad core.

Additional notes: The WiFi is the catching point on this one, it only ever worked for me with CSM disabled in the BIOS. the x140e + upgraded BIOS + swapped to intel wifi is a much better laptop. If you get one of these cheap it’s nice though only a dual core. Also I’ve ran 16GB of ram in these, the x140e probably supports 32GB.

I’m really surprised at how well this machine works, I’m really only missing out on the fingerprint reader and the camera. Both legacy and EFI boot just fine on this hardware, I just use EFI as everything else on this machine is also EFI.

Rating: Excellent (everything works… except maybe the camera or fingerprint reader)
Haiku version: Haiku R1 Beta 1
CPU: Transmeta Efficieon
Memory: 1GB
Additional notes: it can boot Haiku from USB and do simple tasks, web browsing is possible but is pushing it, Netsurf would be fine for this PC. If you use a CF to IDE adapter you can upgrade the storage of this PC easily or put an IDE HDD/SSD in it. I would lean toward an HDD as it will survive disk swapping better. It is very low power… I intend to use it as an always on IRC box.

Where did the old list go?
The old computer compatibility list, with machines dating before Beta 1 was released, is in its original thread. All models contributed to that list have been placed in the last post of that thread and it should be locked.
