I'm quite pleased with both of mine.

Sony Vaio which I use in hotel rooms as it has a nice size screen for showing films with surround sound which is interchangeable with a minidisc player. Nice sized keyboard and I like the jogdial. Was a bit slow until I upgraded to 512mb. Very very quiet

IBM T30 with 1gb RAM, 30gb and 80gb drives. Nive 1400x1280 resolution. Run Linux and Win2K with z/OS, z/VM and VSE as guest systems. For office stuff I use Star Office. Good sturdy workhorse but a bit loud.

Samsung

Personally I'd go with ScotsPine's choice, a Samsung. The quality is usually very good (they supply a lot of the components people like Dell use anyway), and they're usually more than decent spec and generally cost less.

I've heard from lots of people about how good Dell is meant to be for price/quality, but every time I've done a comparison the same spec'd Dell costs more, and from personal experience ain't built half as well.

My suggestion an M30 or V30, or my current personal favourite the X30:
