Strange but true, you might want to look at some of the dual core toshibas... not terrible at all!

any Dell that fits your needs PLUS the 3yr,4yr,or 5yr Complete Care Plan. If you are on the road and your laptop dies, a guy will be on your hotel door next day with a part in hand to replace whatever is broken (a.k.a. no sending the laptop in for repairs!!!). Plus the warranty covers accidental drops and spills. It's expensive, but worth it if your entire business is on the laptop and you are a Road Warrior.

i would go with dell....but if you're not doing much more than surfing on it, you might want to look at a winbook. they're pretty inexpensive and i've had no trouble with mine for 2 yrs.

Dish out the extra money for the warranty. And if possible, try to make sure the component's on the motherboard aren't embedded. Being able to pull and replace a video card is a beautiful thing.

As for brand...I gotta go with HP or Sony. I can't vouch for Dell the way I used to. Not after seeing them all die at work within 2 years of use.
