My 15" Lenovo T61p is well-made, durable, has a 2-3hr battery life, and gets ~60fps in counter-strike. I've had a Dell Inspiron series for 4+ years (still running), and the T61p outperforms it by a lot in terms of durability, weight, and overall handling and processing. One of the first cons I had with not just the lenovo laptops is the 'fn' key placement. The T61p has it at the bottom left corner, where the 'ctrl' is supposed to be, so i had to get used to that when i copy+paste, but its not that big of a deal, I got used to it. ALWAYS get a graphics card even though its another ~$100-$150 add-on because its worth it.And although SSDs are so much better, but ~$400-500 for 320GB doesn't seem to be worth the cash right now, but if you really want one, buy from Adata :D
