Not a big Sony fan. I've had nothing but trouble with their equipment in
the past, mostly because of Sony proprietary features. If it's a choice
between those two, go Mac all the way.
I've had this experience, as well. Sony makes very cool hardware, but I'd stick to their cameras and PDAs. Sony laptops are notoriously inflexible due to their proprietary drivers. I was never able to get Linux running properly on my Picturebook.
As Nathan said, IBMs are great PC laptops. If you are going to go with a PC, and if a Sony or a Powerbook are within your budget, than a ThinkPad is within your budget, as well, and, in my opinion, is your best PC option.
Of course, you can't go wrong with a Mac, although the new Powerbooks have some issues that you should make sure are resolved before making a purchase. I use a 1GHz Powerbook (the last "old" model), and I have been very happy with it.
