Hi I'm afraid I gave up on filling public rubbish dumps. If you can excuse me for putting it that way. If I do need a laptop I go to Ebay and get hold of something like an IBM T40 or X40. As long as it has 2Gb of RAM. Cost about $160. Ebay also do a CD based manual for about $10. How to service and rebuild an IBM laptop. Easy to do. Easier than most car engines or gear boxes.
Other than that Advent or Dell. I've burnt out several Advent laptops. All of them were good. -- Richard http://www.sheflug.org/indexpage -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
