one more thing worth mentioning -- given that the economy is pretty
much in the tank at the moment, you should be able to get a *really*
good deal on a laptop, as a lot of manufacturers are throwing in
lots of freebies to move their product.  when i bought my new inspiron 
8100, i got an extra 256M of RAM free, free shipping and i'm sure
something else at no extra charge, but i can't remember what.

regardless of the freebies, though, while i think thinkpads are
terrific laptops, they cost considerably more than a comparably
equipped laptop from most other vendors.
