I just ordered another Lenovo Thinkpad, refurbished. I love the one I have, so just wanted to get a backup in case this one craps out, since I bought it used also. But it's been about 3 years and still going strong. Nowadays when I get a new (used) laptop, I wipe Windows off and install Linux, so I always pay a very reasonable price. I wouldnt even consider paying $1,000 or more for a new one. I love Linux and would never go back to Windows or Mac. I just got home from a meeting, so still have a few chores to do around the place, and just wanted to check in for the evening. Anyway, I like talking to you nostr folks out there, so thanks for listening. Good night nostr friends #grownostr #homesteading #countrylife #Linux

Goodnight. I have one Lenovo that has been useless since the last Windows upgrade because of memory. Maybe I need to try Linux.

Absolutely, you'll have a new laptop if you put Linux on it. Tons of videos on how to do it.

You definitely should -I have a Thinkpad yoga which ain't no powerhouse on WIndblowze but with custom Linux kernel does about everything I need out of a daily-driver.

Worth trying. It's sitting in a drawer right now not being used.
