I can probably say enough good things about my ThinkPad A31p, but not easily.

It's not perfect, but no notebook is.  It's *very* nice.  Built-in 10/100
ethernet, firewire, USB, 802.11b, serial, parallel.  The only built-in thing
that doesn't seem to work is the modem.  Good audio.  Excellent video.
The display itself is so beautiful that I only occasionally use a physical
monitor.  I am utterly in love with it.  :)
