Finally upgraded! P1 Gen 2 4K OLED

Nice find! The P1 Gen 2 is one of my favorite ThinkPads. The keyboard is so good! But yeah, people will chew you up for showing that you have Windows on it. That’s why I don’t post in this sub so much anymore. Use whatever OS you want, and enjoy your machine!

Help me buy a Thinkpad!!!!

Look for A ThinkPad P53 or P15 G1, yeah they're 15inch, not 16inch and they're heavy, but they have GPUs and can game. If you'd rather have a lighter carry then look for X1 Extreme or P1, gen 2 and 3, they're the same chassis, just one has Quadro graphics instead of GeForce. If you must have a 16 in

Not only is this wrong the laptop i have now ive had for 6 years because a beautiful trans woman picked it out for me

I'm a techy person so I actually spend time figuring out which is the best I can get for my money. How I came to have a ThinkPad P1 gen 2. Sure, the battery needs replacing, but this was one of my responsible purchases.

Thinkpad p1 buying advice.

I use a ThinkPad P1 Gen 2 with a 9th-generation i7, Quadro T2000 processor, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. It's like having a GTX 1650/1660; you can play some less demanding games. I personally use it for CAD and CAE, and it works great. I also do some rendering occasionally. It's never given me an

ThinkPad P1 Gen 8 Fans

I have a P1 Gen 8 .. dont hear that sound I'm running Windows 11 LTSC, so its significantly debloated compared to Win 11 Pro. The fans run a little but I have A LOT running .. several browsers, one of which has over 50 tabs open (some are snoozed etc). I'm running a VM using 2 cores and 4GB of RAM.
