Thinkpads tend to be built with stronger materials and often come with much cushier warranties - basically, Thinkpads are the best non-Mac laptops you can buy quality-wise. I used to own a Toshiba Satellite 5205, and it stopped working completely immediately after the warranty ended, and Toshiba phone and web support couldn't have cared less, leaving me footing the bill on multi-hundred dollar repairs TWICE. After that, when it stopped receiving power from the plug, I gave up and bought a Thinkpad. It's doing a lot better at the one-year mark than the Toshiba was (hey, it turns on), and the included warranty was 3 years instead of 1, so I've got two more years if any problems ever do pop up.
That said, the quality of Dell's laptops has gotten terrible since the early 2000s, and their tech support is even worse. If it really has to be between those two, Toshiba is the lesser of two evils.

Our company switched from Toshiba to Dell for our laptops a couple of years back and now our support requests for laptop hardware service has dropped buy almost 20%. So, we are happy with Dell.
We have over 6,000 laptop users.
Also, we had a few people call Dell support by mistake and were give a huge load of crap in broken English. Not sure if I would buy the support

Toshiba is my vote. Dell's have been having lots of problems lately and I know many people with Toshibas.

If you had that choice then there would be something wrong with you if you bought the toshiba.
