Consumer - Shit you buy at Best Buy that's made of really cheap plastic 
 
Business - Mostly metal, better build quality, video cards. 
 
----------- 
 
The only two brands I recommend are: 
 
HP Elitebook (buy an i7 or i5 slightly used, it's way less -- check craigslist) 
 
Lenovo ThinkPad - Again a great platform, I personally prefer the Elitebook.

 I just heard someone bitching about this the other day... saying how "business stuff" is just more expensive because its for a business than personal use 

In most cases, with the exception of Internet, phone and cell companies, business class products are made to be used a lot more and a lot harder.
