Everyone going slim and small

Very soon, most all tavarns will have wireless internet.

It is the rage here in Tampa currently.

This is the case I use for all of my computers. Some are slightly different but size is the same. Very portable for travel but much more computing power than you'll find in a notebook.

It's just the case. It's a computer like any other "desktop" it's just smaller. It comes with a proprietary motherboard but you supply the CPU, RAM, Video, etc.

I use these now because they're so much easier for me to take to conferences and travel, what not w/ an LCD. Nowhere near as portable as a Laptop obviously but like I said you're using desktop components so you have much better hardware. Important for me because I like to still play games while I'm on the road.

For most people though they would need just a high-end laptop. Which I also use

I'll assume you want something windows based. If not then just get whatever powerbook you can afford.

As far as windows based machines...

You can order direct from Toshiba or Dell.

If you want the lexus of laptops however....
