Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I just bought a t480s off amazon last month myself, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FH25JBKP

Hexbear told me I overpaid for it, but I can vouch for these laptops, rock solid build quality, runs super fast off the ssd (probably even faster with linux but I still have windows on it). This seller said it's used but when it came it was literally like new, dunno if that's luck or they take good care of them.

Funny you mentioned that because I went back to that thread which got me searching on Ebay. I might just go this route based on your recommendation.

Cool! I've had no problems with this laptop a month later, hope it works well for you too.
