I think Sony VAIOs are great:
- small, fast, light, thin, 5620 style key action, touch pad
However, make sure that it has a supported Ethernet interface
and a supported graphics 'card'. This can be tricky.
I have two. Russ and I worked out how to do a USB floppy install,
but one doesn't have a supported Ethernet card and the other doesn't
have a (fully) supported graphics card.
The default disk partition seems to be half for c: and the other
half is unused -- ideal for Plan 9 [no messy partition/reinstallation
games].
