Replaced my Toughbook with a Thinkpad (shh...don't tell Dell, I like my continued stream of paychecks), and haven't regretted it one bit. Stands up to a hell of a lot of abuse.
As far as the M$ tax, like others have said, it's extremely difficult to get away from it now. I figured paying a few extra bucks was just part of getting a top-notch box, as well as the support from Lenovo.
