T4x0 series have never disappointed me

Tbh I can’t remember the last time windows troubleshooter actually solved a single problem when trying to help people with their PCs. And there’s like a fraction of a percent of the amount of discussion and documentation online for Windows versus Linux. A lot of problems for the former are literally just unsolvable.

eBay Thinkpad all the way. T460-480 are what I usually go for. Easily less than 200 bucks.
