I have a 4 month old Toshiba Satellite 4015CDT with a PII/266.  It has all
the same features mentioned by the others.  I believe that Kevin is correct
on those functions being from the mother board and bios.

Two weeks ago I bought a Toshiba Portege 3010CT.  Pentium 266 MMX with all
the same power management features.  It's an ultra-portable (under 3
pounds) and has everything I need.  I found a refurbed unit on the net for
$1,299 (plus $250 for the external 24x CD ROM.
