There was an interseting (ish) article about the very subject in
Computer Shopper (www.computershopper.co.uk) however the article itself
is not on the site !

In it, it lists the following reference point :-

http://physics.open.ac.uk/~rpblake/linux_laptop/.

I haven't read it all, but it may be helpful....

Going back to the article itself, it recommends (amongst other things)
that you acquire a spec sheet of the desired beast before you part with
any money to ensure that various chipsets are compatible - don't go for
leading edge technology (yet) and watch out for things like APM support
(apparently lacking in Caldera 2.3)

I don't know where you are - you may be able to get a copy ?
