any laptop you buy from office depot or best buy will likely be crap, and not work well with linux. your best bet is to get an ibm EPP code from someone in the lug (join the #trilug irc channel, we'll hook you up) and get a thinkpad.
You might also try the IBM used/refurbished stuff: http://www-132.ibm.com/content/search/refurbished.html I bought my current Thinkpad used (off-lease, most likely) when it was ~1 year old and I've been just as happy with it as I was my previous Thinkpad, which was purchased new.
