I am using Toshiba Portege M500 for the past 2 years - all Intel components,
1.8 GHz, 1GB RAM, 12.1" display (not wide screen), very light and portable.
Everything works out of box except bluetooth. I run Debian Lenny on it, so
Ubuntu should work too.
Currently on offer - INR 40,000 with 3 years international warranty.
regards,
Nishant
