I honestly thing that there is nothing on the market which matches their quality including Apple laptops. I have ThingPad 390E PII which is seven years old and work like Swiss watch. I bought it on an auction five years ago for $220. The so called power sellers on Ebay are actually IBM or Lenovo proxy sellers. They sell machines which are back from the business lease without charging customers taxes. ThinkPads love FreeBSD.
