@MathieuGuindon You know, you could always introduce your boss to RD...

Also, HTH does one get CC of 42 without intentionally trying? That must have been... twisted.

OK, do I bid on a somewhat overpriced laptop, just because it's the top of its series? Advantages over my current rig: maybe 40% more CPU speed (same cores / threads), able to take 32GB RAM and an NVMe drive rather than SATA.

OTOH, my current laptop can take an eGPU, which could be kinda fun :-)

@mansellan why are you bidding on old ThinkPads? Are you trying to find a Coreboot compatible system? (That used to be the reason they were desired)

If you want a modern Coreboot PC you should look at: system76.com/laptops

Those are going to be much faster, and more expensive.

@HackSlash "and more expensive" maybe that's why he's looking at an old one?

Wow, lots of silverware today...

Silverware? Like spoons?

Forks lol

Yes, like spoons...

Who invited this guy? Time to cut him off...

:D

Cut me off? I've only had one drink! %^D

@FreeMan LOL! That one might stick haha

I think our starcount might start saying 1.2K in 25 stars (we're at 1,125)

@MathieuGuindon I does whats I can

Evidently, insignificant digits don't matter. :p

@FreeMan quite so... ThinkPads (especially the T ans X series) are pretty bulletproof business laptops. My X230 (circa 2012) has been upgraded with 16GB of RAM and a couple of SSDs, and does fine even with 3 instances of Visual Studio and ReSharper running. The current X is perhaps 50% faster in CPU, but would cost close to £2000 from Lenovo

X230 and X270 are particular gems in the series, some of the other iterations have upgradability issues.

the X240 being a particular low spot (they decided to remove the dedicated TrackPoint buttons...)

Been discussed a few times but Adam Savage on #ImposterSyndrome.
