I'd go with the IBM ThinkPad.

I Probably will not purchase another Toshiba (available at CostCo) because
of their attitude towards operating systems that they didn't install.  Eg:
you are screwed and they will NOT help.  Even if you just want to go from XP
Home to XP Pro.

No experience with Acer.
