RE: light, two-spindle machines (was Re: [Thinkpad] x40?)

Hello,

A was discussing small and light notebooks with a friend of mine and
he related an experience of a fellow who just got the small and light
Sony laptop. Straight off he poked his finger through the lcd screen
and broke it. He was not pleased.

I know a few people who have the Toshiba Libetto and are happy with
it. Of course they tend to have slow processors in them like the
Thinkpad 240.

I've heard several Vaio owners express happiness on the day they buy their
laptop, and once again when it's replaced with something better. They buy
them for the "look", and later I hear mostly rants about non-existent
support and a flimsiness that leads to things falling off or breaking.

One of my software vendors, a real nice guy who knows less about pc's than
he'd like to think, has had his Vaio's keyboard bezel held together with a
wide rubber band for about a year.
The LCD frame he "fixed" with a hot glue gun.
