I have a xps-13 but my daily driver is a ThinkPad T480 now. It's a really good machine.

That screenshot was my Desktop. Gaming and Stable diffusion only
My 2016 refurbished Desktops are used as servers , runs nostr relay (wss://relay.poster.place) , fediverse server, bitcoin, lightning, jellyfin, etc
So I looked at all my machines for this and all of them consume too much power. I'm in the UK so I don't have much play.
Today I bought a fanless hp with 4gb mem and 16gb sad to hopefully run:
+ Email server
+ nostr relay
+ Potentially a lightning node
I don't think I can fit anything else.
Power should be something like 20W max.
T480 is nice right? Cheap! Had to upgrade memory to 20GB and installed backlit keyboard
Crazy cheap! I got 12 cores and 32Gb memory. Really pleased with the beast.
Comes with infrared camera which I can only consider if the CCP demanded for it.
T480 came with 12 cores? Really? Is it i7? I got i5
Oh yeah baby.
I7.
The price was a little over 1300, but I got it via a company so had a large discount.
