Oooh, I forgot about Transtec. I have bought kit from them in the past which was pretty good imho, although the quality of cases on rack mount and desktops could be a bit dodgy but overall they were good kit. I think I will take a good look at the Asus laptops as they certainly appear to have a good spec.
Centrino support may be possible using a loader from Linuxant http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader but that may not appeal to you as it means using windows drivers.
There is also http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/ which does the same thing and is free software, built in wireless isn't a major issue as I have a pcmcia card so if the laptop has a slot then it will be no problem :)
Thanks Adam
