IBM is usually spend-y for what you get, and I don't like their tech
support as much as the others.  Both Compaq and Dell have great tech
support, as long as you stick to the business end of things (as opposed
to the products geared toward the home user.)  NOTE: When I say great
tech support, I mean how much arguing I need to do to get them to solve
my problem, which is usually hardware related, and then how fast can
they get a spare part out to me.
Other than that.... I guess I would make sure that the computer you get
has all the available ports.  New laptops are sometimes leaving off
"legacy" items like the serial port - no good if you have an old Sun
system with console only access!!! Or an older palm pilot cradle.
Make sure it has lots of ram, like 512 MB, and a good amount of Hard
drive space, like 40 GB (I use my laptop for a file server a lot to help
with on-site installations of my user's computers)

So in the end, it doesn't really matter, I guess - they are all the same
as long as whatever you get does what you want it to do.
