Re: Computer for Inventor

Many people here, and that I've met in real life have told me that Thinkpads were some of the best quality laptops out there. I've had a Z61t for the past three years, and it's horrible. Granted, it's not their high-end line, but the thing would break every couple weeks, and different components too. The hard drive will break and BSOD my computer every so often. Power cord comes loose. Battery randomly died after a year of use. The OEM CD drive stopped working. The speakers started giving me so much feedback that I couldn't hear anything I was playing (probably due to some bare wire picking up external noise).

But as I mentioned before, this was a middle-class line. They're high-ends could be much better, and it seems like I am a very small minority.
