I'm looking to save up a bit of money and upgrade to something bigger and
better. This is something I've only had for 6 months; its in great shape but
does show the wear of my frequent use (are below keyboard where hands rest
is a little worn; thats the only big thing)

Comaq Presario V5101US
AMD Mobile Sempron 3300+ 2Ghz Processor
1152 MB of DDR RAM
60GB HDD
Broadcom 802.11G Wireless
PCMCIA port
Ethernet Port
ATI AC97 Audio
ATI Radeon Xpress 200M Video
15.4" Widescreen monitor
Onboard Modem

Great battery life.

Everything on this is fully linux compatible, minus the modem (though I
never looked into that at all; you might be able to get it to work). Tested
in Ubuntu Dapper and Edgy. It also comes with a Windows XP Home license,
and it works great with Vista, incase you care about that.

I'm asking $600; this model of laptop is still selling retail for $650, and
I've upgraded it with a $120 1GB stick of RAM. It'll also come with a nice
notebook USB mouse, a USB hub, and a nice carrying case.
