Lenova Thinkpads seem to be the most oft-recommended laptop PCs for reliability & value for money, and I would've gone with one of those if I hadn't got a bargain deal on on a Toshiba Tecra (£400 for a new-in-box model that usually retails for about £1200), which has served me well thus far, aside from the DVD drive fucking up after about 6 months.
I imagine you'll get the usual chorus of Mac-acolytes, but despite having asked several of those I know for a single good reason why I should pay substantially more for a similarly specced Mac than I would for a PC, I'm yet to get a halfway satisfactory answer: "They're just better" or "They just work" seem to be the usual responses.
But then again, I like Vista so am obviously a clueless pleb when it comes to discussing computer hardware & software...
