My vote is for Thinkpads. A quick search of the archives will bear out the popularity of that opinion. Be prepared first to investigate the hardware on any prospective model, second, evaluate the support with respect to each and every device, and finally, spend time and effort configuring things so things work "just right," for increasingly large values of right. I believe the investment in time and effort pays off in all sorts of ways, but chances are you'll end up with a system that you'll consider indispensible and one that you'll know better than your girlfriend, wife, or whatever. I'll leave it to you decide whether that's a good thing. ;-)
