I have got so many used ThinkPads. Everyone in my house has one.

Probably a cool enough guide, if you are American. Most of the guides are purely for America. Too bad.

Hit the nail right on the head. Thank you.

Edit

Also. The only time i charge at fast speed, is for road trips. Maybe twice a year. I can spend a couple of minutes charging, without a problem.

Probably a non-issue for this use case then. A relatively cheap Lenovo for programming, would not be too old to have a decent wifi card already in it. Even the pretty old ones I got for my kids have decent wifi cards, some even 4g. No issues at all with running Linux.

I love it. The kids cheap laptops with Ubuntu are now fully fledged gaming laptops! And a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and the cheap tablet is also a gaming computer.
Edit: also wireguard to connect from outside the house.

I am running OCIS on a Raspberry Pi at home. I like it. The Android app is not the best, but you dont need that.
