[ltp] My next ThinkPad

[Rei Shinozuka]

i moved from the T23 to the X31.  in my case, i left a lot of
weight and bulk on the table, traded down from a 1400x1280 screen for 
a more pedestrian 1024x768.   but the built-in wifi and USB 2.0 
are both welcome additions, as is firewire which i don't happen 
to use.  i replaced the X31's tiny 40GB drive with a 100GB
hitachi.  if needed the big screen, i think i'd go for one of the T40 
series, since USB 2.0 is virtually a minimal requirement these days.
