Toshiba laptops are great. They are a little high end. I am playing right now on my new toshiba Protege M200 Tablet pc. just got it today, but I did alot of research. Very nice and portable You can use as a standard laptop or swivle screen that closes inside out, and then you use a magnetic pen. My internet connection is a verizon wireless broadband pc card. lets me have internet most anywhere, even driving down the freeway . Only good things to say about toshiba. great customer service, and warrenty. My dell was a great laptop too, it took a beating in the p/u truck for the last five years.
