In my opinion the Latitude-series and the X- and T-series from the
Thinkpad-brand are equally good. But support-wise Dell seems to be a
ahead of anyone else in the business. [..]

Cant comment on support, my last thinkpad t41 had in last 5 years only
a broken powersupply cable, replaced by my corporations department in
some days. No need for support on the x200 yet.

The Dell support is definitely better. But the models listed, Latitudes,
T4x and X-series, are definitely the ones that work very well. (I
still have a T42 that I love, except it's now a server because the
screen electronics have gone gimpy enough that I can't trust it when
travelling. It was one of the SXGA ones; *sigh*. The X61 I'm using now
turns out to be quite the little beast, once one puts in an SSD drive
and gives it 4GB of RAM.)

Wait until you met the T400 and T500 - those too aren't that great. As Thinkpads get farer away from the IBM Thinkpads they get worse…that's at least the feeling of me and my co-workers.
