"During the Christmas break, I have installed and set up Windows on my Lenovo X1 Extreme laptop. That might sound slightly stupid as it came installed with Windows, but as with every other non-Mac laptop I’ve owned/used over the last 20 years, I wiped the disk and installed Linux on it. Now it was the other way around.
I now do development on Ubuntu using Windows Terminal, editing in VS Code on Windows or IntelliJ in Ubuntu using X410."

"I got a new laptop at work the other day. It is a Lenovo X230 which replaces the best laptop I ever had, the Lenovo X200. I carried the X200 around wherever I went for three years, and in that time I had to replace the battery once. Which is really simple: you buy a new one, take the old one out (no screws) and put the new one in. Oh, I replaced the old hard disk with an SDD one too."
