The Toshiba 1000SE has everything that you need.  As you can tell,
I use one.  As a matter of fact, I'm typing this message on it over
a 9600 baud serial line in VT100 mode.

I use a 2.4MB hardRAM drive.  It's handy to have in meetings because
it doesn't make any noise.  Although it beeps on power-off, that can
be fixed by disconnecting the speaker wire inside. (the 1000SE is 
easy to take apart!)

Although I probably couldn't live w/o the instant on/off hardRAM drive,
I certainly couldn't get along w/o PC Tools deluxe.  It does almost
everything I ever need.  I rarely use the desktop machine anymore (except
to answer to phone).  If you buy a laptop, buy PC Tools.  If you don't,
buy it anyway.  If you buy PC Tools, use the Macro features.  You can
really do amazing things with them.  i.e.  At 9 each night, tomorrow's
schedule is printed even though I'm running voice mail.  It's great.

Good luck.
