    I got a MacBook for free and I regretted even that. Someone spent money on it, what a waste, even if it wasn’t me. I have a refurbished ThinkPad now and I love that one.

      That’s all I’ll buy laptop wise. I’d be a fool to buy a new laptop for my use case.

      Give me an off lease Thinkpad with no SSD

      I’ll furnish my own drive and OS.

        I thought of getting a laptop from tuxedocomputers, the original reason I got a mac was I was fed up with windows, my last laptop was toast, and needed something asap, that i didn’t need a time investment to use since uni courses were starting soon. Learning there’s a company that makes fair priced, built for linux machines with their own distro, that now seems like the perfect device for me.

        The one good thing about macs is they don’t loose that much value, so I can resell it and buy something other than a mac
