I HATE buying new stuff. But I am absolutely dependent on a computer for my job, and my workhorse laptop is finally doing enough scary things that I really do need a new one.

My current laptop is a Lenovo ThinkPad T480, and I really love it. I want basically this exact same laptop, but newer. I want all the ports, and no biometric or touchscreen. I'll be using Linux. Recs?
