I am using Dell Inspiron 3500 for exactly that reason, work/home/travel.
Have given up on desktops, just connect to servers from laptop.
Just upgraded from 3.4 to 4.0 everthing appears perfect (except backlighting
doesn't switch off ;-).  Many thanks to all the FreeBSD developers!

I'd like a bigger screen but the 7000's too big/heavy and expensive
(my boss has one).
I know there have been lots of suggestions and here's one more
The Inspiron 5000 - can get model with big screen 15" 1400 x 1050
and its lighter than the (heavy and ugly) 7000 series.

Unofortunately it came out about 3 months after I bought my 3500
and dont actually know anyone with one. But provided X works with the
ATI Rage Mobility it would appear be to be an excellent machine.
