  i quite like the Compaq presario range,

uhmm.... Presario's are too expensive imo. And they all use
winmodems. Armada 6500 is very nice. Very thin, integrated Xircom
ethernet+modem which works fine with linux, based on the former DEC
Hinote Ultra 2000 so no engineering funnyiness. Very hard to find
though. (and expensive).

but if was to get a money no problem
  laptop it would be the best Latitude available.
  
Viao's are nice too. modem supposedly works with Linux, and the Viao
Picturebook has a camera which apparently works with linux and *3*
mouse buttons! Cheap too.
