The Dells aren't quite as solid as the IBMs, but I still like them.

One of the guys in our Leeds office got a Thinkpad before we 'standarized' on Dells, it's really nice and solid feeling, but obviously has the price tag to match.

This university gets "special pricing" from Dell and those Texans owned much of the Intel PC biz here long before I arrived, including Intel laptops.

We were going to get a Dell D410 to use as a sniffer, but heard that Thinkpad prices were dropped a bit post-IBM. I gave the local sales rep a Dell D410 config/price target to hit and he came close enough with an X40 that we bought it. I have always loved Thinkpads and that little X40 is sweet.

I'll be interested to see how that product line evolves as Lenovo.
