Not necessarily (though as epbrown knows, I've been accused on Usenet of
being an agent of IBM:); my only objection to the HP is the keyboard (I've
never had my hands on the Toshiba). I shared a flat during a conference 2
years ago with an HP600 owner, and got to play with his machine for a bit; I
was pleasantly surprised at the *feel* of his keyboard, but not the size - I
like full-sized. BTW, I found the pop-up mouse quite usable, though of
course I *am* right-handed.
