Anyone have advice on notebooks?

[MaNuMaNiAc]

I'm looking to buy a notebook, nothing too expensive, something around $1,000. My father is tarveling to Houston soon, and was also wondering where would be a good place to buy a notebook? Anybody here from Houston got any advice?

If you're going Windows I would stick with XP for a while Vista from what I've heard is still having problems with drivers and such
