Up to now I've put Ubuntu on ancient PCs I already had. Currently I'm thinking
about getting a laptop but don't want to spend my hard earned cash find I've

Looked at a couple of companies which will sell machines without any op system.
Pcspecialists: apparently there's a problem that the touchhpad doesn't work with
ubuntu
Novatech: don't know if their hardware is compatible with ubuntu or not
Looked round PC World a few machines there look reasonable spec/price but don't
appear on the Ubuntu-certified hardware list.
What do other people do? Any advice?
I've had two Toshiba Satellite laptops in sequence, the current one
being about two years old now, and both ran Ubuntu flawlessly. (Neither
had a built in webcam though...)
