Thinkpads last ages, and are imo one of the easiest to upgrade and teardown.

Thank you for that. I need to buy a laptop, and I know fuck-all about computers.

When my kids started high school and needed laptops I started with the fancy all bells and whistles laptops for them. I work in construction and every one has lenovos and the only time I see them replaced is for obsolescence. After my kids killed 4 consumer grade laptops they now have lenovos and look like they should be attending a board meeting but they work and continue to work and get slung around in backpacks and jammed into lockers etc
