I finally got my Thinkpad T43p, Model #: 2687-E4U. I am extremely happy with the notebook, being the first notebook that I have ever owned. It took me 3 months to figure out what I wanted, and I finally settled for the Thinkpad. Before that I was looking into Asus Z70v, Asus Z71v, Dell 700m, Dell XPS Gen 2, Dell 6000, HP nw8240, and I acutally purchased the Dell 700m but the keyboard was just too small to type on for home use. I was going to return it back to Dell, but then I decided to keep it because with $449 that I paid for the 700m, I thought the price was too good to return it, and instead I use the 700m when I travel.

I received my thinkpad 2 days ago, but have been too busy installing software and getting things setup to post until today. Here are the significant specs: T42p, 15" UXGA w/Flexview, Pentium-M 1.8 GHz 745, 128MB ATI FireGL T2, DVD-R/CD-RW Multi-Burner, 80GB 5400rpm HDD, 512MB RAM, Intel 802.11b/g Wireless, Windows XP Professional, 3 year warranty. My Initial Thoughts - Ordering Process: 5/5 When I asked one of the people working at my university's bookstore if they sold built to order IBMs, he told me that there were a few pre-configured models not listed and that he could print me out a list in case the ones on display didn't have what I wanted. I'm thinking he screwed...
