Yeah, the TrackPoint is easier to control, and more precise, but sometimes when
it drifts off, that get's annoying. The Touchpad is easier to figure out, but uncomforatble,
and hurts my wrist.

The ThinkPad's HD can be upgraded, wheras the 560's is sealed
in (this is correct, right)? Unfortunately, the 701 has the awful (IMO)
keyboard, but it's still a very capable system.
