If you are moving to Fredericton (my hometown, although I'm in Toronto now), that's a good place for someone like yourself I think. The tech industry is ever expanding there, with a few big developments underway. Plus the free wi-fi network was always a plus for me. Where in NB are you moving?

If you don't mind something not quite sexy, I recommend it. I nailed my Thinkpad 600X for $425 US. With a new hard drive, some RAM, and a DVD/CD-RW upgrade, I have a rock solid machine for about $700 US. I run Windows XP out of necessity, but a linux flavour could also keep your costs down. smp If you want to do a laptop, I suggest the eBay route.
