I got a guy at work that has decided he wants a non toughbook. I think I am going to look at a latitude used, i5/i7 etc. Are there any models to really stay away from? I seen a few newer ones I didn't recognize.

My 2 cents for Dell are 630, 640, and the 6500. They might be old but the are sturdy and perform nicely. I also use a 6510 which is a I5 and the twin to it look a stomping but still functions. It's impractical to use any more from the damage, but it's still kicking.
CF-29ET, CF-28ST, CF-30G , CF-M34, CF-19Ch, CF-19FH, CF-19CD, CF-73 mk1, CF-74K & H, CF-51RCB, CF-51RCL, CF-52CC .

As long as the deal is good for you it is good for me.

I'll agree with the Dell D630 T9300 with the updated LCD panel, it runs Windows 7 very well. I find most machines with a Core 2 Duo that show an "Average CPU Mark" score above 1000 or better on Passmark (http://www.cpubenchmark.net) are fine for all our basic needs.

I'm running an E6410 Core i5 nowadays, mainly as I need the extra speed for encoding. They have become very cheap in the last 18 months.
CF-30C with standard keyboard and Windows XP.
CF-30K x 2, both running Windows 7.
CF-19F. Windows 7.
It's difficult not to collect these things.
