It depends on what you want to do with the laptop. I am a software developer and I have the following notebooks: 1) Sager 8600 2) Dell 8100 3) IBM Thinkpad A30P and A31P 4) Toshiba Tecra S1 (latest). As far as quality goes, I...

I have a Sager 8600, an IBM Thinkpad A30P, IBM Thinkpad A31P, and a DELL 8100. If you travel a lot on an airplane and plan on using your computer away from a power cord, I would recommend an IBM Thinkpad T30 or whatever comes after...
