I’m thinking of picking up a used ThinkPad on eBay for cheap to serve as my daily driver. I’ll likely run LMDE, and primarily use it for web browsing, office programs, coding, and FreeCAD. Any recommendations on which model would best hit the sweet spot of capability vs price?
Exactly. These three T580s were all NIB and have no modifications other than 2nd drive. Side by each with the same pics you can see the difference between all of them. One is really really nice, one is heavy orange, the other weighted blue.
