My criteria: good keyboard and pointing device TFT 1024x768 in true color 32 megs ram minimum 3 gb HD minimum 166MMX or better 12" display or better (13" optimal) Has anyone bought a laptop matching this description recently and managed to get XWindows running at 1024x768 in true color? I don't care about small size -- in fact I don't want it. I've been looking at models by Quantex and AMS -- both exceed my specs and are around $2400. Anyone having good success with models by either of these companies fitting my description? Any other companies to look at? TIA, Craig.
