If you went to consumer reports you could benefit from overviews of the
basic types of laptops.  Since you  belong to NLS you could look in issues
of Smart Computing or PC World.  I believe they carry them  both now for
download.

Joel,

Because laptop and netbook models tend to have very short product life 
cycles, the blind publications rarely review specific models.  Even Consumer

Reports has a hard time keeping up with rapid changes in models and 
features.  The blind publications prefer to review adaptive technology 
products that have a relatively stable product life cycle.  Also, laptops 
and netbooks are mainstream products which, by themselves, lack special 
adaptive enhancements, except, of course for products like the IPhone 3GS 
and the Mac with Voice Over.
