Favorite laptop?

I forgot, I also have a one year old Lenovo T420s for my work laptop. I like that it is pretty small, light, and quiet. Resolution has never been a problem either, mine is at 1600x900 and at the office I run it dual monitors using the laptop screen and a 24" Samsung just fine.

What is a problem is the fan died after 6 months and it wouldn't boot until IT replaced it, the battery life has been terrible from day 1 (I get an hour if I'm lucky), and it is slower than my Pentium T3400 Acer (even pre SSD) despite having a 2nd gen Core i5.

I would not recommend it.
