Hi, as the title says, I'm looking for a good IBM or Toshiba laptop. I'm not looking to spend too much (maybe 600-800...possibly more). The only thing is it has to have ATI graphics card/chipset (don't ask :)) Can anybody make any recommendations. Thanks

Hey, it doesn't really matter. I guess used would be preferred as I'm kinda on a budget.

The IBM T41 Thinkpad is the sh!t, but you ain't gonna find it for $600-800. It's more like $1800+. You can configure it with a 32MB ATi 9000, or a 32MB ATi 7500. But like I said, if your price range is $600-800, forget about an IBM. Maybe someone could help you out with a cheap Toshiba.

Thanks for the info JackBurton. I've seen the T40/T41 and they are sweet laptop. But like you said, I can't afford one of those right now. It doesn't have to be somebody that's actually selling one. I'm just looking for advice on which one to get so I can narrow my choices down.

For $100 more, you can get an X31 IIRC. There's an IBM deal going on either in FW, or ATHD or both.
