<p>the mbp is not as durable as an actual business class notebook. As for the safety featuers, excluding the unique magnetic power supply cord, the only outstanding feature i have been able to find is the fact that the harddrive parks the heads under unusual acceleration. That is it. And as durability is one of the main components of a business class notebook, and the mbp is missing what others have, can it really by considered business class...no. That is why you can't really compare a thinkpad to the mbp, they are in totally different classes.</p>
