And you still can't get ECC in a laptop that isn't a $4500 boat-anchor. Personally, I use a T480 because: - it has dual batteries that really last 9 hours - it's repairable, and the manufacturer (Flex (Flextronics) actually) repairs it in Memphis, TN for US customers, although it can take weeks or months to do so. (It killed itself, the USB-C AC adapter and a DC travel adapter recently, but they fixed it... before sending it in, I didn't see any physical damage (burns or pits) to chips under magnification, but it must've killed the power circuitry internally.) - it works as a hackintosh by only changing the WiFi module and adding an antenna. - it does Linux, FreeBSD, macOS and Windows all just fine - RAM and 2.5" HDD bay are upgradable Sadly, the T490 did away with dual batteries and follows the poor example of Apple.
