A few basic questions on getting a new laptop

sportmatt37 · Nov 13, 2005

on this same note, I have to get a notebook for college next year. In addition to running the traditional trading utilities, I will also need it for college shit. Would you recomend thinkpads for me as well?

Take a look at:

IBM (now Lenovo) offers some excellent models to meet all possible needs. I have been very content with my IBM T20, T30, T40 series laptops over the past few years.

Same here.
My G41 (bought on Nov 04) was my best laptop ever.

I wonder what the "psychological barrier" is for notebook screen size. Once the 19" resistance level is broken, how long could it possibly be before we see a laptop with a 42" screen?
