i'm curently researching laptops as well.
ibm's are highly recommended, but use ATI stuff. But they have the best

after a T-21 is gonna work well with Linux.
Earlier IBMs work nearly as well as newer IBMs with Linux (though more
slowly :) ). The keyboards are first-rate (except the 760 series). These
days, I'm partial to the Thinkpad X-series laptops, because I think the
point of having a laptop is lost if it's difficult to carry.
For Thinkpad advice, the best place to ask is the Thinkpad mailing list,
or see the linux-thinkpad mailing list:

Also,
http://www.thinkwiki.org has some useful information
