For me personally, I want off the Thinkpad train, but I don't think I can get a new laptop with a trackpoint, 3 physical buttons, and a good high-res matte screen elsewhere right now.
- Symmetry 3y agoI'd always assumed that once the big Trackpoint patents expired you'd see a lot more of them. But nope.
- 5- 3y agoi'm using the x2100 which arguably doesn't fit your desiderata around 'new' and 'not thinkpad' depending on which way you look at it, but otherwise is sadly the best available option in this segment. - reasonably good (but aging) motherboard -- 10th gen intel, 64gb ddr4, pcie3 nvme. - great 3000x2000 13" screen. i just put a matte screen protector (ordered custom cut to measure) and it's way better than many off-the-shelf matte screens - fabulous keyboard. not mechanical but so much better than any chiclet. - trackpoint. i've put in the touchpadless palm rest just for style points. i really wish someone would produce a comparable 'actually new' laptop for when i'm upgrading, but the outlook isn't good.
