As a Sony Vaio owner I can emphatically say not Vaios.  Fine if they 
worked as they are supposed to but desperately unreliable quality in 
fact.  Be wary of Compaq - they have bizarre bioses that require 
management software stored on a DOS partition.  Toshiba are OK.  Dell 
make very reliable, big and ugly machines

Don't bother with non-brands.  You find yourself with no proper 
documentation or helpful user community.
