I disagree. I have an old IBM ThinkPad from the era when IBM still made PCs. Dell is pretty close. Their laptops are on the shitty Toshiba-ish side of things, granted (although higher quality build). But their monitors and keyboards are top notch. Simple, black, non-glossy bezel. USB ports on the side. Swivel, portrait, and height base adjustments. Their keyboards remain consistent with the 1980s standard PC arrow/home/numpad configuration and not that weird Microsoft/Logitech shit of putting tiny arrow keys in random locations, or F-lock.
