Hi,
If you need the modem, try to find a laptop which doesn't have a 
Winmodem (though I think they're not that common), since you might have 
to buy the drivers for the modem to be useable (if it's a conexant modem 
like mine).
I've been very happy with the performance of my Dell Inspiron 8200. Not 
the latest but has been working very well with CCRMA.
