Well I have a Dell and I both love it and hate it.
I have always been impressed that it ran linux so well (w/ wireless mostly too) and the hd has held up better than I expected.
However, the design and laptop hardware kidn of sucks. The hinges aren't metal so now they can't hold as well as they used too. Also the fan IS LOUD and tends to annoy people when I use it in class.
I would actually recommend against Dell now on the basis of their business practices alone.
That said, I would go with IBM or Apple too. I don't know Toshiba's, so I can't comment. The new HPs seem to be ok, but I refuse to EVER EVER EVER recommend anything with the word compaq on it.
