Question for the lentils out there: What makes and models of laptops are good these days? Traditionally, you could just get an IBM ThinkPad if you were willing and able to pay extra for quality, but judging by reviews, they aren't as consistent as they used to be. A 'nice' laptop has to get a lot of things right: fast internals, sturdy case, quality keyboard, excellent battery life, and good heat management, to name a few. Are there any manufacturers that sell machines worth buying anymore, or do you have to compromise?

It seems that all the cheaper laptops have terrible screens. It's crazy you can buy budget phones and tables with higher resolution. Why can't someone produce a reasonably priced laptop with a reasonable screen that is better than what you could get a few years ago?
