I like Toshiba myself.  Low cost and very reliable. There's also the 
IBM ones.  Good prices for these in the States.  Compaq can be good 
as well.  You might run into problems with spares for any of these ?

I could go on forever.  For me it's whether you like or don't like 
the sticky out thing in the middle of the keyboard or do you prefer a 
touchpad for ease of use.

Configuring your laptop is an issue that you should take seriously :)

Thanks
