Apple MacBook Pro (2008 Edition, 2.4GHz)
A solid, if predictable, upgrade to the MacBook Pro line, but noteworthy for stealing the MacBook Air's best feature — expanded gesture controls for the touch pad.
Lenovo ThinkPad R61
The 14.1-inch R61 includes all the important parts of Intel's revamped Centrino platform, including the new Core 2 Duo, extra onboard Turbo Memory, and 802.11n.
Ratchet: Gladiator
Ratchet: Gladiator is still one of the best platformers you can find, with a clever story, unique and interesting weapons, and compelling multiplayer options.

Apple PowerBook G4 (17-inch; 1.67GHz)
The 17-inch PowerBook G4 delivers a competitive set of features, a great software package, good battery life, and style in spades, but you can find plenty of less expensive options out there.
