To show that the system isn’t working and needs to be privatized to run more efficiently. And then replace previously functioning government-run organizations with private ones owned by their friends

I bought my ThinkPad a fair bit before yours, but I can’t imagine replacing my T450s either. The dual batteries, TrackPoint, and sheer number of ports is something most modern laptops just don’t include. Ten years old and still running beautifully thanks to Linux (Fedora 41 Gnome). If I do end up leaving it, I’ll be getting something a few years newer, like the T470p. But it’s a no for new ThinkPads :/
