    Looking to get a new laptop that's as quiet as possible. Ultra fast is not essential as a desktop that was OK for what I do is P4 HTT 2.4GHz with 1GB RAM. Need it for daily use.

    Will run Debian Linux, from the information I can find wouldn't be an issue or might need some tweaking. I think all these come with Windows which will be a waste of money.

    Extras that would be nice bluetooth, card reader for SDHC and micro SD if possible, 4 USB ports. I was also looking for a 32/64GB SSD but looks like these are available as add ons only for the higher models.

    My budget is up to 750-800 euro for a HDD, will pay more for SSD of course :-)

    Was also considering Toshiba Tecra A11 but my information is that it might be noisier.

    Anything I'm missing, what would be better of these 2. Any recommendation for a store or just buy direct so I can customize?
