On that page it would be the IBM/Lenovos for me.
T410 or X220
Read this thread about the vendor - seem good.

I would echo what AlexSimon said. I picked up a Thinkpad x200 for £150 on ebay a few months back. Think about putting an SSD in it (about £60-70) as it will prolong the usable life span and make it damm fast!

hmmm, looked at that link to the hot uk deals site. Starts off good but skipped to last few pages and seems like quite a few people havent received the spec advertised.

I see - I hadn't kept up with it after the first day.
Doesn't sound too good then - although they are still in communication with people, which is good.
