This sounds similar to the deal my fiancee got on her thinkpad when she started med school last month. They weren't given a choice in what to get and were all given a T42. But hey, they're only paying $1000 for it... If I could get one,...

I have to say that the CrumplerUSA site just kind of pissed me off and that turned me off getting any sort of bag from them. I guess I'm not their target audience.

The biolithic sleeve does look rather thin. And you say that it feels like the screen protector is too thick as well? That's a little worrying, I have to admit. How long have you had it now, and what is your experience in...

Or the iBook because of price. With an educational discount, you can get a 12" iBook for about $1k with a decent amount of memory and HD space. I don't think Alienware acknowledges the existence of prices that low

I think that the Powerbook 17" is 1440x900, or something about that.
