in fact , I'm recommending the *product* , not the company .
what millad say is right , in most of time , for linux on laptop's , you are 
on your own . 

without a doubt IBM think pad is great , best of any chose , but they are 
expensive . in Iran , people don't know think pad much , so there is a few of 
them and it makes them more expensive :) 
Sony Vaio , is " Working" chose , not "perfect" :) 
AthlonXP can work good on laptop's , I've got HP pavilion ze 4200 and 3 hour 
working /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature is "45 C" ! :)
