Laptop

I need a laptop for college. I'll probably end up buying new, but I thought I'd throw this out there to see if there are any bites.

 

I'm not going away, so I still have Arkhangelsk for when I'm not at college. This means it doesn't need to be a gaming machine or hold my entire collection of movies.

 

It doesn't have to be anything too fancy. Essentials are a sufficiently large drive and a wireless card compatible anywhere I might find myself. I'm hoping for a C2D. Battery life is also key. I don't know where I might find an outlet to plug into.

 

Screen size is not important, but the unit must not be more than 15" wide, or it will not fit into my case. That means if there is anything sticking out the side, it must either be removable or not make the overall width more than 15".

 

Thickness is not important as my carrying case is old and was designed to be able to carry laptops back when they were six inches thick.

 

The machine will run Ubuntu/Beryl.

 

No Toshiba, please. Their support sucks.

 

Preferably not Sony. Alright... I just hate Sony. XD

 

Hoping to spend under $800.

 

Thanks for looking. :D
