This isn’t the first time I’ve blogged about the dearth of truly great PC laptops out there, and I suspect it won’t be the last.

    Thankfully I have some requirements for laptops that very significantly narrow my options:

    • It must have a good, ergonomic keyboard
    • It must have a good pointing stick

    That only leaves Thinkpads for me to consider.

        It’s not what you would normally call an ergo keyboard with a curved / split key bed, but I think they’re superior to the majority of recent laptop keyboards, especially compared to the flat square chiclets of MacBooks and the others who blindly copied them. The keys are curved so you get tactile feedback of where your fingers are and the action also feels good to type on.
