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?

B-b-but Macs are just PCs built with commodity parts that are exactly the same as the ones in everyone else's machines! You're just a trendoid fanboy who can't resist Steve Jobs' reality distortion field from beyond the grave! Apple tax! Only idiots who don't know anything about computers will have anything to do with Apple's walled garden!!! You're probably a latte-drinking metrosexual urban liberal warmist too, aren't you?!?!1111

Macs are fine ... it's the iOS devices that are the problem, and unfortunately are from the same company.
