NOTEBOOKS
IBM ThinkPad T42 Editors' Choice
IBM ThinkPad T42
What is it?
This thin-and-light notebook offers the latest performance and features in a package that is still highly portable; it weighs between 5 and 6 pounds, depending on the screen size. The configuration we reviewed had a 15-inch display, but a 14-inch version is also available.

Why students need it:
With the latest and greatest of everything, the IBM ThinkPad T42 is a serious laptop for serious students. At less than $2,000, the price is nice too.
