Sterling have some P100's for £100.
Morgan are pretty good though. I got my first pc from them -
a 386sx laptop so my experience is hardly current.
Everyone I've known who used them hasn't
had problems, but you never know how good a supplier really
is until you have to send stuff back under warranty...
Although not a laptop I got a nice virgin webplayer
off ebay for $56. It just has linux and a browser (no hard disk).
Out of the box it has dial-up internet access, but hacking it
is a project I keep meaning to get round to so I can use
it as a terminal on the home network:
