My several year old Dell has a fingerprint scanner. I like Dell, but in my opinion their quality has gone south as they moved from the "custom order" online business model to a more retail store oriented product. I always get tasked with finding good computer deals for my computer illiterate family, over the past years I probably ordered 10 Dell laptops. The last few, including mine, were significantly cheaper in their construction. Several parts of my case have been loose since new, and the computer has been very buggy.

I just picked up a Sony Vaio for my wife and have been very impressed, it was under $600 at Office Max.
