why not a MacBook?
Macbooks are heavy, and my impression is that the hardware (while very
nice, feature-wise) isn't as robust as the ThinkPads. If mobility is a
major consideration, then I personally wouldn't pick a MacBook.
I think the new Lenovo made Thinkpad hardware is pretty much equal in
quality to Apple hardware, if not worse.
If you're looking for an integrated system with a nice UI and Unix
under the hood, the Macbook is a great buy.
But to run Linux it makes more sense to get the Thinkpad especially
since it might be cheaper.
