Just looking at the prices of those laptops they ain't
any better then what you can get in any store
including Windows licence, I'd say thay are much
higher comparing with say hpshopping.com. Circuit City
had a nice Toshiba (512MB, 40GB HD, 15'', SVGA,
DVD-RW) for $845 + tax past weekend - that I call nice
price. Moreover if I remember well, somebody on this
list mentioned Toshiba apci works ok with SuSe.
