Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap.
>Excellent keyboards - tactile feel and quiet.
>Great durability: chassis uses a magnesium rollcage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels.
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing in the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

TO THE ANONS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH DRIFT

yo replace the nub. the profile is likely gone, making you push it harder than it was ever designed for. This is causing the drift. You get used to pushing it harder over time because of very slowly developing wear. especially if you got the lappy second hand, and the previous owner also used the trackpoint.

>Yfw you have to set your sensitivity settings back 70% after getting a new nub.
