Im not. Its just that thinkpads are one of the most reliable brands (Ignoring the SL series). They are built to last, simple as that.

Enjoy your ugly and overpriced alienware when you get it.

Yeah, and they also look like they're from 1930. And I prefer customization, and choose what I want, I believe the thinkpad doesn't do that.

And the t9300, does seem to have slightly better

On the other hand - unless you're actually made of money - when you actually have the laptop you'll soon realise that the sheer prices weren't actually worth it.

I have a £500 laptop from 4 years ago which I still use - the higher spec ones at the time would not be all that much faster these days.

In the hard-disk area, the truly best idea is to go for a small HD - like 120GB or so, that way you can then just pick up a WD Passport 320GB for like £80...

And in CPU intensive stuff you should actually see a large increase in performance with a bigger cache (double the cache is pretty sweet), so if you are going for the best of the best then buy the T9300.
