Hmm. IBM Shareholders get 10% off any T series laptop.
I'm thinking of going that route and doing their 6 month same as cash credit(For orders over 750). That way I can get a laptop I'll be happy with rather than settling for less.

I've had a Dell...I would buy again. It is just the build quality isnt the best. You just have to treat it a little nicer.
I have a IBM ThinkPad, it is dope. I love the build. It feels really sturdy.
I've used many Macbooks. The build quality is the best. But I guess you pay for it and you have to switch OS.

They're just so fucking expensive for what you get. Build an Apple computer to your specs, then take that money and build a pc computer and you will save a shit ton of money. You're really paying for the software and shit on it.

So the link I gave you appears not to be working any more.
Here's a similar one. Comes with XP pre-installed but a Win 7 install disc.
