i too have a T60 - running FC6 and RHEL 5 on it.  works great - even the 
finger print scanner :)

the thinkpads "made by lenova" look and feel just like the "made by ibm" 
models.

my coworkers use one of many thinkpad types - t60, x60, t4x.  they also 
like the mbp's as mentioned earlier.

now that novell has joined the dark side, ibm/lenova seems to be making 
sure there laptops work with RHEL/FC6, etc much better out of the box. 
if we could only get ATI to release 100% open source drivers!
