I know my friends IBM is all but bulletproof (though it might be) but the screen looks terrible. My HP definitely comes short on the screen end of things as well but that's not what I got it for (the screen gets uglier every time I think about it haha)

Ah, yes...IBM/Lenovo. Check out the W700 series monster "lap"top. A client had one...OMFG it's amazing. A 10" screen pops out from behind the 17" one so you can put all your palettes on the smaller screen and work on your main image without distractions. Built-in colour calibration AND a built-in Wacom tablet in the palm rest! The W700's screen shows 72% of the Adobe RGB gamut, which has been equaled by the newer Macbook Pros, but nonetheless when I first saw it I wanted it. Then I found out it cost him $5000. O.O
I've always wanted a Thinkpad... IBM used to have the best keyboards on the market. Don't know about now.
