I have a dilemma: I can buy a used thinkpad x13s ARM laptop for 400$.
Pros:
- Lightweight, fanless, energy efficient.
- Fresh and not falling appart like my current one :)
- Can explore and improve the state of Linux ecosystem for RISC architectures.
- Good price.
Cons:
- No proper sleep, no KVM, PipeWire problems.
- I'm not sure that I can use it as my primary work machine => will need to maintain and carry two laptops during my trips.
- Migration/setup costs.
