i have about 1k to spend on a laptop for the MD.
He has previously bought toshiba and we have found them very reliable.
I need to get something ideally with a 1gig of ram and obviously as fast as i can get for my money, but it also needs to look good too.
Anyone have any suggestions/links?

I've got the XP version of that one and it is a cracking piece of kit
