does it need to be brand new? if not consider a refurbished thinkpad, a T4xx or T5xx should do nicely depending on which screen size you want

I would agree with this. Get the latest model T series you can with your budget.

I would avoid the E, X, L series as they are either too cheap(in quality) or either too expensive (X series) due to thinness. The T series strikes the perfect middle ground and it well known for available replacement parts and upgradability.
