I agree macs are beautiful and buying good tools is smart, but I love my Toshiba. It's a tank. It's been around the world with me, banged around on trains, planes, buses in second and third world countries, I've slept on top of my laptop bag with the sucker inside, and it still runs. It's got cracks in the case and the keyboard is battered, but it still runs. My old Toshiba was a tank too, it went five years before dying, and I run my laptops hard. I love the aesthetics of a Macbook Air for instance, but I'd be terrified to travel with one the way I travel.
