I'm on a Lenovo T420s, it's a pretty solid machine. This is my first ThinkPad and I really love the screen resolution and the feeling with the keyboard, the keys are just amazing and if you are a developer I think this is one of the most important features. I oned a MacBook (the white and cheap one) and an iBook, but the "physicity" of this laptop is really good. Moreover you have 2 USB 2.0 and 1 USB 3.0 that you cannot find on an Apple product.

I'm using it with Fedora 17, everything works pretty well but you need some tweaking to optimize the power consumption while on battery.
