Recommendations for laptops?

I've had a Gateway laptop since November 2000 and I've patched it up for the last time. I want to buy a new laptop. No Gateway or Dell, and it has to be a Windows machine. (I've got a Mac G4 at home, so I've got that platform covered.) Any recommendations? Email me at toobeaut at yahoo dot com.
