(Nate states those with built in CDROMS are heavier and flimsier)

I'll look over (and pick up and shake and thump on) a Thinkpad with
built in CDROM before I decide it is too flimsy.  I thought the 365xd
was my 365x with the internal floppy traded off for internal CDROM.
The 365x isn't flimsy.

The Toshibas at one of my clients have built in power supplies and
take a line cord on the back.  I don't know the model, but they
have both older 486 systems and some newer Pentium systems.

I'm more willing to trade off weight for having everything well
packaged in one place than the market.
