Just to clarify...
Lenovo has been making thinkpads for some time now under contract for IBM. Its nothing to be scared of. They not only bought the name, but the entire thinkpad operations from IBM, from facilities to the employees (that sounds bad, "they bought the employees", but you know what I mean). And IBM wouldn't have sold them the name if they thought quality was going to suffer and make them look bad.
If I wasn't a self-admitted Apple whore, I'd be eying a thinkpad.

A note of caution with regards to the IBM's - they are soon not to be
IBM, though I understand the Chinese company that bought the business
gets to keep using the Thinkpad name for a while.

In the Intel family, I only use Thinkpads. And that was even before I
started working for IBM. I prefer the T series, although lots of folks
like the smaller X series.
