Looking to upgrade from an old Latitude, curious as to what mobile hardware you folks use for writing your open source projects?

As an owner of a 13 I really like it. I only use it mostly as a YouTube and email machine while most ofy heavy duty work is on a desktop but it does well enough running popos. They are a bit pricey to buy new thiugh so either get one of the older one used or go the used think pad route for a similarly repairable experience.

I use my Framework 13 (Intel 12th gen) for some heavy CPU workloads and it's been a champ! For the balance of quality, performance, cost, and repairability I really don't think it can be beat.
