How many Thinkpads do you own?

#1 Post by Thinkpad_T43_Fan » Mon Oct 30, 2006 1:15 am

My friends think I'm a nut. I am a diehard Thinkpad fan.

Since my employers no longer issue Thinkpads, I've started collecting my own.

I purchased a Compaq laptop for personal use from CostCo, but hated the widescreen and hefty bulk of the laptop. I also hate all other brands of laptops - Toshiba, Sony, Compaq, Fuji, Dell, etc etc...

These competitor laptops are too heavy, too big, the keyboards are terrible, or just plain ugly boxy designs.

I hated the other brands so much that I've snapped up a couple of T43s in the last month or two for personal use.

One will be for daily use, and the other will be for spare / future wife's laptop to replace her eMachines when it fails.

I am so happy to be using a Thinkpad, even if my work laptop is a piece of junk.

I am now addicted to Thinkpads and can't imagine using any other brand. Nuts huh!
1st Thinkpad - 770 aka Brick
2nd Thinkpad - 600E aka sweet
3rd Thinkpad - T20 aka dream
4th Thinkpad - R50e aka cheap but nice
Current Thinkpads - T43 aka the best
