Hi,

I am looking into the possibility of purchasing a new "mini-laptop" PC, similar to the Sony C-Series: http://www.vaio.sony-europe.com/eng/products/notebooks/c1ve_frames_top.html

I would like to know if their are any other laptop manufacturers who produce "mini-laptops". Fancy camera crap is not necessary.

Mainly i am looking for a laptop near 1/2 the size af a standard 12" screen laptop.

As a plus, I would be interested to hear peoples experiences of running linux on such systems, or any other experiences with such devices.

Dont want a PDA, i would like to have the full power of a laptop, but half the size.

J

if you're looking for a fully functional real small unit i'd recommend the iPaq (it's the only product from compaq i'd ever recommend). it's a fully functional pda capable of running windows (not windows ce) and even linux (with some effort) and includes a pcmcia slot for things like wireless nic cards.

if you're looking for more of an actual laptop i like the dell latitude c400 series. it's very small, very thin, has a 12 inch display. a really nice light weight unit. most things like the cd drives require external connectivity but that doesn't really bother me to much so i imagine you'd be cool with it to.
