That's the point!

Thinkpad T series laptops are what apple laptops can only dream of being.

Yes - a good side effect.

I reckon my T61 wouldn't get nicked and can quite happily use it on a train out of London even at night without being fussed.

The same could not be said for a MacBook which just has "mug me" written on it.
