Well I'll (speaking for myself) "bad mouth" Sony laptops. My group had to
support them (execs loved them) and they were garbage. Non standard parts
(even the same models bought at the same time had different parts), repairs
cost almost as much as a new one, etc.

Any machine can have problems. But on the whole, I vote for Thinkpads.

 Take
another company which people defend for high quality laptops: Sony. Sony
allegedly has a failure rate of less than 2% (Better than Lexus ;-) ). Can
you find people saying "I'll never buy a Sony product?" Sure.
