Default which laptop?
I need a new laptop
My current (a Fujitsu B110) is dying :-(
this one's ultra small, and I'd prefer a new one of the same (yet a tad faster and a tad bigger hd)
But these kinds of laptops are very expensive.
I want my laptop to be:
relativly cheap (about 600->800 Euros)
small
power-efficient
Has anybody good experiences with that kind of a laptop?

(hum, yes it needs to be a x86 laptop since I need certain specific programs to run on it, so unfortunately an Ibook or alike is out of the question :-/)
Cheers

Power Efficient = Centrino
Brand = Toshiba
Price = A lot higher then what you are willing to pay!

(I have one, best laptop so far and I've had many!)

I have a Toshiba model M45-S351. It's very nice, but it's also about double what you want to pay.

Don't know the exact model name; but I have the Tecra S1. Very nice machine, 2.0Ghz Centrino, 1GB RAM, 100GB HDD, DVD+-RW drive, 15" TFT with 1400x1050 resolution.
Don't I have a nice employer? (got it from my boss)
