No ThinkPad in NBR's top 10 most popular laptops

[Puppy]

I noticed there is no ThinkPad in NBR top 10 Most Popular Laptops for December 2009. There is Lenovo G550 only. Is it a good sign ?

do you want a Dell Inspiron 15"? I'd rather have my 2002 IBM ThinkPad A31 15" thank you!
and why all the "laptops" that NBR put in the "top 10 best laptops of December 2009" all look exactly the same? At least the newer Lenovo ThinkPads stand out from the crowd, they don't have all those silly reflective bits etc... No.1 in the list was an ACER . My brother once had an Acer desktop PC and it lasted for about a year and a half, tops...terrible make.

That is actually my point as well /
