A killer set of laptops, for me, would have to include an XO-1, a Toshiba Tecra 780DVD and my longtime companion, a 486DX4-based Toshiba Satellite 420CDT.
[size=8pt]Not particularly fast or powerful by today's standards. (Well, OK, the XO-1 might leave the two Toshibas in its dust. Stick a copy of Mandriva in there and it's a good, rugged [and cheap] field machine.) But as the great fablist/philosopher Aesop himself once implied, "slow and steady wins the race".....
And they won't tell you this, but reportedly the abbreviation "OLPC" *really* stands for "One Lovely Portable Computer". ;o)
