Laptop dead, suggestions?

[Warner Losh]

Greetings,

My Sony VAIO Z1W died this weekend at BSDcan.  Both the hard dirve and
the laptop are dead.  The hard drive doesn't spin up on about half a
dozen different machines and enclosures.  The data is likely gone
forever, unless I can find a good data recovery place.

So, I'm in the market for a new laptop.  Unless someone is donating me
a decent one, I'd like it to have the following characteristics:
	>= 1GHz speed
	>= 512MB RAM
	>= 40GB hard disk
	Excellent battery life
	light weight (< 4 pounds?)
	decent scren
	well constructed
	PC Card slot
	ExpressCard slot
	SD card slot (with the standard SD host interface)
	builtin wireless

Does anybody have any recommendations?
