New Laptop, Hold the Chiclets?

[Palanan]

For months I've been looking into getting a new laptop, but I'm hung up on a fundamental issue: virtually every new laptop I look at has a chiclet keyboard. And I truly, deeply &#%$@!! loathe chiclet keyboards.

Are there any laptops which can be customized to a non-chiclet layout, or is this an invariable feature? Because I might be looking into a nice stylus and wax tablet if chiclets are all there is anymore.

Some Toshiba Satellite, Lenovo ThinkPad, and Dell Latitude notebooks still have traditional laptop keyboards rather than the island style keyboards you are referring to as chiclet keyboards.

Okay, thanks. The Lenovo ThinkPad and some of the Dell models were what I'd more or less narrowed it down to anyhow. Otherwise the chiclets are like the Borg, assimilating everything.
