Hey,
I just picked up a IBM Thinkpad T61p.
After looking around for about a month and comparing the following:
- cost
- battery life
- compatibility with Linux / BSD
I had it narrowed down to the IBM Lenovo or a Mac.
The IBM model was cheaper and had support for dual monitors via a
docking station. I currently have dual LCD's.
Plus the T series seems to be a more durable machine, spec wise the Mac
was going to cost another $1000 to match in spec.

probably be a good steer for what to buy.
