   Lenovo seems like a natural choice because they sell laptops with
   Linux pre-installed.  For those looking at used laptops (Stephen
   says he's buying new), I installed Ubuntu on my Dell Inspiron 8200
   recently.  It was painless, and everything seems to work, including
   the PCMCIA 802.11G card.

I've had a pair of Dells (Inspiron 8000 and what I guess is basically
a C840, equivalent to the Inspiron 8200).  Both work very nicely under
Linux without any major problems.  I like the 1600x1200 screen.
