I am using a DELL XPS 1730. I had a car crash last november, flipping twice with the car and ending in the trench, at 130hm/h (about 80 miles/h). The thing was on the back seat and managed to get out of the car through the back window and was later recovered from the highway (I was unaware I don't have it anymore - one of the policemen found it and brought it to me). Guess what. The display was a little bit cracked and I used it in that very day for hours, giving a presentation, then used it daily until I've replaced the display. It had no other problems.
I guess it's a matter of personal experience. I had a DELL Latitude - no problems whatsoever, now DELL XPS - no problems whatsoever, so I guess DELL works for me.
