I want something equivalent to a Thinkpad X200.
It's key attributes are:
* the keyboard - traditional bevelled scissor switch keys
* the size the size and weight (under 2kg, ~12")
* 16:10 ratio screen (1280x800 or larger)
* not paying Microsoft for Windows 10.
I was on the verge of getting a Libreboot X200 - a rebranded Thinkpad, with Trisquel pre-installed and an open BIOS, but was uncertain about the seller and recent events have put the nail in that coffin; I don't trust them.
But that leaves me struggling against the proliferation of shit that Apple have caused, with no clue if it's even possible to meet my foremost requirement any more.
Can anyone help prevent this being yet another stacked atop the impossible quest pile? :( |
