I'm using a T60 right now. Love the keyboard feel, I enjoy a 4:3 resolution too. Can anyone recommend a newer laptop with a nice keyboard? I find all new laptops keyboards feel like a flat piece of plastic.

Whether you're trying to avoid premature optimisation, or just don't care, software is always as slow as it can be. You only tune it when you notice a problem. The only way to make software reliably run 'fast' is to run
