The web site you suggest is the same I reported above:
http://www.linux-on-laptops.com
. None of the models I found around the shops is present there,
nor at:
http://tuxmobil.org/mylaptops.html
.
That's quite normal: in the shops you only find the newest models, 
whether on the sites you find the - more or less - old
experiences of people.
