the old machines were built by serious white men for serious white men. great attention to detail. good engineering. they kind of stuff that would come out a place like bell labs. good ergonomics. good screen ratios. ccfl backlights that do not induce headaches. good feeling keyboards. dedicated led indicators for everything. keyboard layouts and special keys that make sense. volume, page forward/back, page up/down, delete, even a numpad toggle for a virtual numpad, thinkvantage button. even the collection of software added to xp was great. of course they gave restore discs as well so you could totally recover your system without the cloud or whatever bullshit they do nowadays. the hardware and the software was built to last and be dependable.
