Default new laptop

just ordered a IBM Thinkpad T60 to take to college with me this fall. Its gonna take 5 weeks to get here and I cant wait. I have always wanted a laptop so i saved up and got a good one. It set me back $1700 (spent $160 on an extra battery) but I think its worth the money. It should last me all four years of college. I hope i get some graduation $$$$$$$$

Nice.. but to be honest no one really uses a laptop in college, you might the first couple weeks but after that you will gte tired of lugging it around, i spent 600 for my comp havent had any problems in the last 3 years, but anyways laptops are awesome, i just hope you didnt think you HAD to get a laptop for college

All laptops and desktops are made by Lenovo which is based out of China. IBM sold that division last year.
