MacBook v Framework are definitely opposing philosophies. However, I will say that the build quality issues of the Framework 13 that were rightly called out in the early videos have been resolved. Chassis stiffness and hinges are improved, although honestly I have both an original and newer Framewor

Lenovo ThinkPads are always a good bet, something like the T440p that came out around 2013 would work. If you want more of the white/grey with more weird rounded shapes to make it distinctly early 2000’s, some companies like Panasonic continue to make old style laptops (like the SC-SV2 being a recen

"Lenovo ThinkPad is a far cry from what it used to be which is why you see it a lot on reddit that users are buying refurbuhed older ThinkPads" That's not the main reason they're buying older ThinkPads. Reddit users are buying refurbished older ThinkPads because of pricing. Retail prices for new Thi

"Ivy Bridge (3rd Gen Intel) — last generation with easy CPU socketing (PGA) in this form factor" Fourth gen models (Haswell) like the L440/L540, T440p/T540p, W540/W541 and Y510p were the last of the socketed systems.

To be honest, I'm more worried about how W11 will run than the VMs. I used to run VMs on my T410 around five years ago and it was mostly fine. If you're buying a new T470 for this, though, definitely get something quad-core at least, preferably six-core. A T440p can be had for $150 and then you can

I am a huge T440P fan. I bought one new from Lenovo and used it for 5 years, and its still in use by someone else. Its a tank, and my favorite Thinkpad of all time. However -- time has come to retire it. I would not sink more money into it. I'm not sure what 300 EUR buys you.

Ka tev der lietoti laptopi. Es visus savus pēdējos 3 laptopus piecu gadu laikā esmu pircis banknote lombarda internetveikalā - visi 3 lenovo thinkpadi T440p, T480 un T14s un visi no 200 - 300 eur robežās un visi 3 joprojām strādā un tiek izmantoti ikdienā. Ir nedaudz loterija protams, bet primāri sk
