Hello /g/, just recently set out for college and looking for a high quality laptop that'll last me for 5+ years (web browsing, email, and Linux dual booting). 256+ G of SSD storage for media, 8+ G of RAM, and a good display are all preferable (a good processor would be nice too - 2.7+ at minimum). Thinkpad meme is pretty powerful, but I can't help but wonder if there are any alternatives. If it must be a Thinkpad which one would give me the most bang for my buck? (No macfags please - my dad's been fully cucked by them)

Hi friend,
I suggest the Thinkpad T470. Think of it as the flagship Thinkpad
Best of luck on your laptop search

So I should stick with thinkpad if I want longevity?

X61 for maximum freedom (though you'll have to mod the screen to an IPS yourself, also its pretty darn old)
X200 for maximum comfy
X220 if you really need a bit more power than the above two
If you still need more power, or a bigger screen, get the equivalent T models. T420 is probably the most powerful model out of the old ones that are still good.
Later models have the chinklet keyboard, don't bring any significant improvements, and quickly become expensive to the point of not being worth it.

Thanks anon, what is the price range of these models? and how should I manually upgrade them so I can have my preferred specs?
