I consider buying a new laptop in late 2014 ... taxes and stuff ... I run 2 thinkpads here, each with 8 gigs of RAM and SSD inside:
L520 and X220 -> both still with Intel Core i-(5|7)-2xxx inside. So far OK, but not up2date. Considering a budget of ~1000 EUR maximum (more based on reason) ... do you have any recommendation from practical experience? I once had a Macbook Air (1st generation) with gentoo on it, it was nice because it was slim and lightweight ... a similar device costs 2000 bucks up when I buy it new (Lenovo Thinkpads X... or X1 Carbon). What I want to avoid is spending quite some money and getting basically the same weight/size I already know with minor performance gain (which I get used to within days anyway). opinions appreciated! :-) Stefan
