It's kind of hard to get a straight answer out of them on that issue. They want me to show that the unit is comprable in features to the one I lost. The woman at the insurance company I talked to seemed to expect that there would be some bargaining involved. I might be able to say "This unit is comparable to the one I lost and costs $1500, but I want this one with these features for $2500, will you pay $1500 towards it?". I noticed that Emperorlinux.com has three laptops in that size range for around $1900. The Piranha (fujitsu p-2120) seems pretty nice: http://www.emperorlinux.com/piranha.html At the moment, what is important to me is: Reliable Able to get the insurance to pay for (most of) it Runs Linux Small size As many dots on the LCD as I can get The more research I can do, the better argument I can make for whatever one I want. Of course, what I would want to do is find both high and low prices so I can say: This one over here with almost no features costs $2500, but this other one, with the features I want is only $1900.
