Why old ThinkPads are still terrific laptops in 2019

  The r/thinkpad subreddit is quite active for anyone interested in ThinkPads especially 2nd hand/ex-corporate/refurbished ones.

    Yes, and Craigslist and Kijiji are full of them, too.

  That's dedication to some seriously old hardware... I bought a T450s as a travel laptop and put Ubuntu on it -- the detected touchpad driver is crap, so I had to tweak there, but everything else works. It's a very nice laptop for the $260 I paid for it shipped. And if I somehow destroy it, I don't have to worry about it being a $2k expense out of pocket...
