Review of a Linux laptop: Thinkpad T400. Do not buy it.

This makes me really glad I got a T60p when I had the chance. Somebody sold off a bunch of them on ebay for $350 each a few months ago.

Is there a truly high-end laptop left? Apple's current offerings are a bit disappointing and it doesn't sound like new Thinkpads are any better.

I'm happy with my X200s. I got it with the big battery, but that lasted so long, I changed to the smallest battery. Now it's incredibly light and has a quite reasonable battery life.

The keyboard is great. The screen is fine - much better than my previous X40.

It seems like an over-generalization to say that the new Thinkpads are worse than the old ones,

Agreed. I've had two lenovo X-series models (X61s and X200s); they've both been fantastic.
