Purchasing a laptop::Anyone fully satisfied with theirs?

[esoR ocsirF <rosef@eou.edu>]

Greetings,
I hope this is not to far off topic. I am purchasing a new laptop for
the Science Journal at my school. I was hoping that I could get some
feed back on fairly recent laptops that are around $3000 and *fully*
functional under debian. I was hoping for something like the following;

~14 inch 1024x768 (at least) 24 bit color
Built in:
	ethernet
	cdrom
	floppy
	Sound
Track point
>= 6gig HD
128 Mb ram
fastest processor for the money.

Any feedback at all would be very appreciated. TIA
