What are some recommendations for a relatively high performance laptop that

Surprised no one has mentioned zareason.com. I haven't bought one from them yet, but I'm sooooo tempted ...

ZaReason won't say whether their laptop models go up to 1920 x 1080p on screen resolution. Every laptop I have seen on the market today ls limited to 1364 x 768 resolution. I call that "half-def." Until a laptop delivers "full-def," it will never replace a desktop.

I like the idea that I can order this maching with Fedora installed at the factory. The only thing is: I've fallen in love with KDE. They won't tell me whether they restrict their pre-installation to Gnome.
