Hi All

I need a new laptop but am stuck on what to look at since there seems to be so much. I would like it smallish, light and portable but powerful enough for software development, running a web server, compiling programmes that sort of thing. Planning to use Linux + Windows Xp, or maybe just Linux.

Any ideas?

Might be splashing out on a lenovo x61!

Will see... need something powerful and good and that will last at least a year or two of heavy usage and luggage.
