You haven't defined what you consider to be cheap - if you're thinking less than a grand, and you don't mind used, try an auction site like eBay. If you're thinking less than 2 grand they're around. Some vendors are even pre-loading Linux - which solves the question of whether X is a lost cause on it, if nothing else. <plug>You could see if Tuxtops' "value" model fits your definition, it's approx 1500 but you can tweak.</plug> > i know you specifically didn't ask this, but at > www.imperialdirect.com they have several "off-brand" > laptops, including Arm (note: i have an Arm TS759 and am > very happy with it), ProStar, Sagar, Twinhead, and a couple > of others. they all seem to be less expensive, but not > quite as "slick" as the name brands. > PS you can go directly to arm at www.armcomputer.com ARM is an importer, and some of the major brands are really ARM under the hood. My past experience with Sager machines was good, but their customer service sucked. Good thing I never needed tech support from them. It was, however, so many years ago that my knowledge maybe completely invalid. No experience directly with the other names named. -* Heather * [EMAIL PROTECTED] *-
