    Recommend a small laptop?

    HT wants a new notebook to replace her old Dell Latitude D505. It must be smaller than the Dell and be able to be used with a docking station. Can anyone please recommend a suitable machine?
    Thanks

    (p.s. Dell size is roughly 34cm x 27cm x 4cm)

    Ive got an 11.1" Sony Vaio TZ which I use with a docking station at home. Not the cheapest of laptops by any means but I love it

    I use a Dell Latitude D630 with a docking station for work. Works a treat and is a very small and compact machine.

    How about the Fujitsu Lifebook U ?
    171 x 133 x 26.5/32mm and weighs only 280 grams.

    Small enough ?

    Lenovo Thinkpad X300 would be my choice but I suspect your budget is slightly smaller.
