X220 here; they are great. Battery life, performance (for what I do) etc are lovely almost 11 years after production.

- rkangel 6y agoA lot of modern software development is actually pretty light on computer power needs. Unfortunately I'm in the 'have compiled the Linux kernel 3 times today' camp for which that isn't true.
- rbanffy 6y agoI do almost all my heavy lifting on a Lenovo tower under my desk. What it can't do, I use a cloud instance for.
- wilsonnb3 6y agoThey have bad screens compared to modern laptops, even the higher end IPS ones.
- bigpeopleareold 6y agoI put an IPS display into my x220. Still lower resolution, but I get away with it with a lot of tweaking. I have laptops with better screens but I usually use my x220 instead. I'd just say: YMMV :)
- tluyben2 6y agoYep, but I value other qualities more (unbreakable, pretty water resistant, long battery life, many ports, easy to swap hds/memory, cheap).
