Lenovo Laptops

They have consumer-grade and commercial-grade lines, with the T-series being the commercial-grade. The T420 still seems of excellent quality, even when compared to the T60/T61-era machines, and the T43 (T60 precursor and last of the IBM-branded stuff.) It has been sad to see them go from metal (magnesium?) casing to plastic over the years, but IBM had already initiated that change, IIRC. Given the abuse I've put my T61 through (weekly commutes from IND to YUL, IND to MSP, etc.) it has my vote of being a solid laptop. I don't see the T420 (current Lenovo) straying too far from that mark. Both my "T" systems run Windows 7. The "G" system is running Windows 8 preview. The G550 is another story. It's a consumer-grade system with a 16:9 screen and 1366x768 resolution. It's body is solid enough, but I've managed to have my DVD-ROM drive bezel pop off and go MIA. I can use it for browsing the internet, but not much else.
