[thelist] laptop purchase

[Norman Bunn]

Look at Sony's VAIO line.  The low-end one I got for client demos works 
pretty well.  Came with 1394 and Memory Stick built in, so it easily 
integrates with my Sony camcorder.  Make sure you check all the specs, 
because some desirable features (such as line-in in my case) may be 
missing on the lower end units.  Can't complain; it was $750 after 
rebate and serves the client demo need just fine.  Slap my wi-fi card in 
and I can do work from anywhere in the house.
