I'd be inclined to pick a brand you like (Lenovo, Dell, whatever) and go look at the models they sold 3-5 years ago IN THE BUSINESS LINE. (For Dell that would be Latitude.)
Then go buy one on E-Bay to buy one of those. There's a good chance that a business computer of that age is likely coming off lease. My experience is they tend to be quality machines at a good price.
