I need another laptop…

Got two… 1 short.
I also have a desktop, recently upgraded to Ubuntu 7.04 Desktop Edition (It previously held a dual boot Windows - SuSe 9.3 configuration). I’ll post about Ubuntu shortly, since I haven’t had much time to play around with it lately; all I can say is that I’ve loved what I have seen so far about it.
Now, why do I need another Notebook? Well, I’ll tell you about my other two ThinkPads first. One is my official work horse, a beaten up R50 that has resisted more abuse than I dare to say openly. I can’t play too much with that since the PC is audited. The other machine is a personal, state-of-the-art T60p. This runs on Windows XP. I have considered making it Linux, yet the fact that my wife sporadically uses it for her work prevented me from doing so (since she runs some windows-only software).
Now the third one I need is a ThinkPad to run Linux on. I am very curious to play with Linux on one of such machines. I wonder how all of the built in TVTs run on it.
I guess I’ll start saving some money to feed my geekiness in the future.
