I completely agree with Stuart. My W510 is a decent laptop, but it isn't as reliable as my T61p was. System76 has produced a couple of "professional" laptops. They don't have all the features of a classic Thinkpad, but I think my next laptop purchase will be from them. https://www.system76.com/laptops/model/bonx6 * Non-chicklet keyboard, * Matte screen (I think), * Full Linux compatibility. It is pretty heavy, but I don't mind very much. I would rather have top performance since I only have to lug my laptop around a couple of times a month.
