    Anyone have an IBM Thinkpad?

    I have an HP DV1040 which is a complete piece of heavy multimedia laptop shit. I need something to take with me on the go.

    I'm looking for something thin, lightweight, and with some good processing power with not much extra crap. Only thing I need really is wireless internet card, and a cd burner for backing up files. This thing is going to be used for site updates (HTML, light Photoshop, light Premier).

    Anyone have any experiences with IBM thinkpads? Or is there a better way to go? I'm a cheap ass so I'm looking for a cheap solution.

    Thanks

      Until I saw the cheap bit I was going to suggest one of the Sony sub-notebooks.

      Very nice bit of kit... but def not cheap.

          Well I should have said cheapest solution. If its worth the money then I wouldn't have a problem paying. This HP that just crapped out on me def wasn't worth the 1800 i paid for it.

                  Then have a look at the sony's

                  Try for one with an xBlack screen - very hot.

                          i have a t41p, not cheap but its great. light weight, small and does 1400x1050. no complaints. Sony's are cool looking but if you move them alot they fall apart quick. Me and a partner bought ours at around the same time and his sony is basically fucked while my ibm is mint except for a scar when i dropped it drunk (which alone means alot, the hd survived).
