P1 Gen 9 announced!
FWIW, I actually quite dig the P1's overall design, but I'm personally really not a fan of the keyboard direction as of late. This is maybe a nitpick, but the new font and lower-case on everything besides the core letters reminds me of what I remember with HP, and I just don't think it looks good on

ThinkPad T1g Gen 8 Arrived!
I'm a huge fan of the center keyboard 16" ThinkPads. Hence my picking of the P1. These newer models and the T1G look so nice. I'm wondering why Lenovo dropped the 1600p 165hz display in g8. 1200p at 16" feels good, and I have one 16" with it, but content density isn't as good.

Any Good Build Quality Laptops with As Good Keyboards as on Thinkpads But Also NICE Displays/Sound?
You can option Thinkpads with very good screens. Most lines are available with top-of-the-line display options - OLED and IPS. Even the cheap E-series can be specified with a 120Hz, 100% sRGB 2.8k screen these days, and any T- and P- series can be had with color-accurate hi--res display options. P1

EU/IT Linux Laptop, what to buy?
Skip all the hype brands. Durable laptops with good Linux support are made by only 3 companies: Dell, Lenovo and HP. Discard all other options. Imo the absolute best laptop you can buy right now is the Dell Pro Max 16 Premium. See this video. Skip the GPU as always unless you really need it. Worthy

Comparison between the best
ThinkPad P16 Gen 3 with Core Ultra 9 285HX and RTX 5000 Pro P series, but not the -s models, those are rebadged T14/T16 besides few exceptions Depends on the market, your budget and performance needs.

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

Should i get a thinkpad p1 gen 6
Screw the MacBook, go for the ThinkPad. MacOS updates are always a f*cking mess with any 3rd party tools/apps - especially Python (brew-installed) versions. I've always been biased against Apple products since they make repairs unnecessarily difficult and costly. Steve Jobs was a hacker and a modder

Switching from 2019 MacBook Pro - Need ThinkPad recommendation around $1250 for heavy multitasking
I've used T-series Thinkpads as my daily PCs since my T400 in 2009. Typing this on a T14 gen 2 AMD 5850U with touchpad upgraded to glass from an X1 extreme gen 1. This will likely be my last T series unless Lenovo upgrades touchpad quality. I also own a X1C Gen 9, which I don't use as much due to th
