[geeks] Big-screen PC Laptop suggestions?

[Sheldon T. Hall]

It looks like my wife and I are going to move to France for a year.
Shipping stuff over there, only to ship it back, is an expensive
proposition, so I'm looking for a portable replacement for her desktop.
Something small enough to carry on the plane, but it doesn't have to be
small or light to carry around as a general thing. 

In particular, I'm looking for a "laptop" with a big screen, since that's
the thing she mentions first.  A normal (not widescreen) diagonal
measurement of 17" or larger.  The only other "gotta have" is a PS/2
keyboard connection, unless the laptop comes with a Quebecois keyboard.  It
has to run WinXP, of course.

I'm open to specific suggestions (model numbers, etc.), offers, etc.

Thanks.
