A vote for Compaq
The number of Compaq products available has been shrinking since the Compaq/HP merger, but my nearly 3-yr-old notebook is still running strong. If you can find one that suits your needs, it might even be available with a price break.
This thing was nearly two grand back in early 2000, but that was for a fairly high-end machine and it did include a three-year warranty... Which is nearly up, of course, and that is when this computer will die, naturally! At least on the basis of my experience, I can't hesitate to recommend Compaqs. This thing has travelled with me on every overnight, has been dropped, stepped on, kicked, bashed, fallen off of tables, left in hot car trunks, cold airplanes, etc. You name it, this machine has seen it all.
