: Dell makes great desktops, and they seem to make good laptops too. Another
: brand that I hear good things about is Toshiba.
Dell and Toshiba models always seemed to fare better back when I worked in computer sales/repair during highschool. I'll be looking into both those brands. IBM, Compaq, and other brands I'm not too sure about.
I haven't tried to set up Sheepshaver or Basilisk II on my winXP box - I'm waiting until I can get a laptop, and install it on that when things are still fresh.
Thanks again!
