I beat the crap out of an IBM T-series laptop, doing over 250K airline miles going back and forth between Dallas and Tokyo over a 1 year period. Loved that laptop. Can't seem to keep a Dell going for more than six months these days, and that's without all the travel. I've told our IT guys over and over that it's false economy to buy the Dells, but the corporate guys just see the initial $$$ and think they're saving money..
