    Anyone use a UXGA (1900x1200) 17" display?

    You should head over to a store and have a look for yourself... probably the best indication.

    T60 FlexViews

    I haven't been keeping up with T60s, but the T40 series only came with flexview in the 1400x1050 resolution at 15".

    Need some advice picking a laptop out

    If you weren't keen on the glossy screen, I'd recommend a Thinkpad T-series with workstation graphics. Good battery life, non-distracting looks for the clients and the 14" models are about as portable as any 14" on the market. Let's not forget they're built like a rock. And yes, you'd best...

    IBM Thinkpad help needed!

    Maybe it's the NumLock?... but that whole needing to press Fn sounds odd.

    IBM Thinkpad Users

    I've got a T42 15" Next time I upgrade I'll most likely be looking at the 14" flavor, or even an X series tablet. Also those Fujitsu 13.3" models looked pretty dandy.

    Laptop newbie lookin' for some advice

    For what your requirements are... I'd say that Dell you're looking at is a decent candidate. What price range are you looking at?

    Choosing a new laptop

    With respect to what he is looking for, he's going to want to checkout screens personally, to see what he likes; make sure he compares resolution because working space on the screen can become important. For battery life, he's not going to want a power-hungry chipset like a P4-M, he'll want a...

    T43 is awesome!

    As you can see, Trikster is an IBM/Lenovo hater... You can also tell by the way he spells Lenovo... (Lenovno)

    best laptop for general use?

    The Z60M is a Lenovo design of the thinkpad... Lenovo is a Chinese (I think) company that took over operations at IBM recently. Anything past the T43, X1 and R50e is likely a new design by the new owners... again (I think). I'm under the influence of Christmas wine / champagne / martinis...

    Thinkpad owners

    I personally use my T42 for writing notes... 1400 x 1050 is definitely awesome for having say acrobat split on the screen with word processor. Definitely enough real estate to do both, it's great.

    Whats the best laptop on the market?

    I'm very satisfied with my T42. I've seen the 14" versions, they are significantly more portable. I've also compared to many friends laptops and others I've seen at Bestbuy and Staples, the build quality is unmatched from what I've seen.
