Another one in the market. After 4 years, this Dell e1405 is getting
creaky. I gather the T41s and T60s/T61s are no longer sold by Lenovo (or
I can't find them), and the X200s seem a bit small. 

I've thought of the T410, but hear they've gone away from Magnesium.
Does that mean Lenovo has sacrificed their durability?

I've actually found myself thinking Macbook...

Thanks,
