The jury is still out on which laptop I'm going to buy.  I know I want
something less than 5 pounds but it also has to support linux fully.
Sound, Modem, Ethernet all have to work.

Yup, looks like the 240 has a Lucent modem.  I think I will be styaing
away from it just on that note alone.

I'm really disappointed that the 240 has a 800x600 display instead
of 1024x768 like the similarly sized machines from Sony and Toshiba.
Maybe there will be a 245 or something after a while.  Sigh.
Oh yes, apparently it has a Lucent Winmodem though I'm not sure.
