Asus is generally good, although they have a tendancy to NOT put US
keyboards on their laptops in canada anymore.  That is awful.

They are also not nearly as durrable as a thinkpad.  They used to make
durable ones (like th R1F for example.  That thing was a tank).

I have to admit I have been less than impressed with thinkpads.
I have a 1 year old thinkpad here that is less well designed than my zenbook and not nearly as powerful.
It is running windows so I may be judging the performance unfairly.
