The thinkpad vs. business class Dell debate is a very valid one. Personally, I like thinkpads more, but I am also probably a little bias. They are both excellent computers, however, Dell doesn't really have anything that can compete effectively with the Thinkpad X220, my thinkpad of choice.
As for the SSD debate. Yes, they are fast, if you are using a laptop with a "sandy bridge" level processor in it, it should support full SATA 6gb/s.
I still recommend Intel SSDs. Yes, they are a little slower then the competition, but they have much lower failure rated too. I wouldn't touch another OCZ drive even if it was free :\
