I use a Lenovo laptop with Vista and absolutely love it. I prefer just hooking up a small full-sized keyboard to it and running it that way. You may find it worth your while just to learn the laptop layout.

 Michael,

 How hung up are you on the full sized keyboard?
 I have a three year old Dell Inspiron that has been
 thoroughly used and abused and like that old Time-X
 commercial "it takes a licking and keeps on ticking."
 It uses a standard laptop keyboard layout.
 I have jaws 8, xp-Pro and Office-XP again with no
 complaints.
