Maybe hard to find
Try here http://www.pricegrabber.com/search_a...yword=&sortby=
You might wanna get a top notch one with 512 RAM and them upgrade to 1 GB.
Research on pricegrabber. I will suggest Toshiba, IBM or Fujitsu

why so many "a.k.a"'s? Clevo is the Taiwanese manufacturer.
Sager is the US vendor which distributes to boutique resellers like Alienware/VoodooPC/and other places.
best notebook forum: www.notebookreview.com (countless research hrs. spent here :o )
