Question for Lenovo marketing; any chance a Thinkpad with a good gfx card will be available again in the near future?

At this moment, the Thinkpad with the best gfx card available for my needs is a P1 gen 7 with a nvidia 4060. The Ada cards don't offer the same performance and cost a bit more. This is nonsense. The RTX 4060 is an Ada card, and Ada generation cards do offer better performance than earlier Ampere car

Good laptop for robotics degree between 1000-1400$?

That is a solid option. Never heard of them before. Neither from internet, nor friends or even AI. They really give an ability to customize RAM and SSD and some other modules. Not GPU or CPU though (it will be too good to be true). Moreover these modules are cheaper than shop variants now. If I had

buying my fist thinkpad

I recently learned that the T1g (which is the same laptop as the P1) will get a Gen 9 soon that has a 12GB VRAM SKU. If you want to get a portable laptop with a GPU, this would be the one to buy.

buying my fist thinkpad

If you have a desktop, you're better off using that for games/3D modeling. Thinkpads make poor gaming PC's. The only current Thinkpad I think is worth considering for gaming is the P16/T16g Gen3 with 12GB or more of VRAM (and if it were my money I'd get no less than 16GB), but these laptops are a pa

HP laptop pricing is so out of control, management wants us to look at deploying Mac

Going on 7 years supporting an environment that is 85% Windows 15% macOS, I will say the Apple hardware is without fault, and for the most part macOS is too. It is a burden having to support two environments and two MDMs (Intune and Jamf Pro) though, but I think Intune is probably at the point where

A new premium laptop that the manufacturer does not want to talk about: Lenovo quietly releases powerful RTX ThinkPad

shouldn't the tilt be "Lenovo quietly releases 'less' powerful RTX ThinkPad"?It's just a non-professional version of the P1, like the T16 to P16. Edit: MORE powerful. Thanks OP."Interestingly, in this case, the ThinkPad T1g Gen 8 will likely be more powerful than the ThinkPad P1 Gen 8,“
