You get a ThinkPad! And you get a ThinkPad! Everyone gets a ThinkPad! :oprah_wave:

I tried to buy a system 76 pangolin but they don’t ship to Australia (yet?)

Sad

But in Australia you CAN get an old Thinkpad, so…

emergencyfood OP ,

System76 and Framework are mostly North America and Western Europe. Pine64 might sell in Australia.

I got unbuntu on my xiaomi notebook with a nice oled screen. It worked almost immediately. Easier install then windows. I chose Ubuntu as my first linux because of lots of support.

Good luck opening more than like 5 browser windows on those old thinkpads

pimeys ,

The refurbished thinkpads you find are usually three years old after the companies who lease them buy new ones for the users.

You can do a lot of things with a three year old thinkpad…

PotatoesFall ,

ah fair enough, my bad, I thought people are always talking about the older style thinkpad

nehal3m ,

Old ThinkPads, the poor man’s Framework.

buy any AMD laptop, replace the wifi card, install your favorite distro and it will run like magic.

You get a new, capable, and power-efficient device, while not bothering with damn old ThinkPads or giving insane amount of money to s76.
