Excerpts from internet.computing.freebsd-hackers: 11-Mar-95 laptop
suggestions by Poul-Henning Kamp@ref.tf 
> I'm in the market for a < $3000 laptop, any good suggetions ?

I've been using an older model NEC Versa for the past few weeks (running
NetBSD and XFree86 3.1.1 on it) and really like it.  This particular 
machine is:
	486sl/25
	8 megs of ram
	active matrix color display
	174 meg drive

The active matrix display drives the price way up, but they also sell them
with mono and dual-scan color.  People around here (at CMU) also run Mach
on them, so they seem to be generally compatible with a wide range of
operating systems.  NEC also seems to have very agressive pricing on
refurbished and blemished units...
