as always: imho (!)
i own a x200s ... bought it in march of 2009 =?> so its approaching 17 years ...
it was a really great device with one of the best keyboards for a small notebook. and i still use it multiple times a week for example to browse hackernews, reddit, ... or watch some video etc.
buuuut: its nearly 17 years old ... everything is starting to wear - i wouldn't invest a dime into it right now.
what do i mean by that: keyboard has faulting keys, case starts breaking at heavily stressed regions - for example around the cursor-keys -, display is (slightly) mechanically damaged, batteries are beyond usefull etc.etc. ...
just my 0.02€
It would be perhaps more interesting to start making ARM or maybe even RISC-V motherboard replacements for some of these beloved chassis.
I wonder what those hackers are going to do when every case is cracked and every keycap worn out :)
As it is, I panic-purchased a second Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 when I was worried that there wouldn't be a Book 4 Pro 360 (they are now on a Book 5 Pro 360)....
(Or upgrade suggestions for someone who loved that laptop? Framework? Thinkpad?)
I bought Macbook Air for $1k just one week ago. I can't be more happier. Fuck these ThinkPads.
ALL OTHER 2:1 TABLETS ARE INFERIOR.
