Which laptop do you have? Are you satisfied with it? What OS is it running? Is there any laptop you would love to buy in the future?
I'm still using my old Asus S56CM currently. I bought it 7 or 8 years ago, I can't remember well. It had decent specs then (i7 3550U, 8 GB RAM, 700 GB HDD + 20 GB SSD, Nvidia GT 635 M) then it died when I upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1, but I was able to revive it after installing Xubuntu on it. It's a good laptop but it's heavy and big, so I'm looking for a lighter and smaller laptop to run Xubuntu on, which I can carry around easily. I'm torn between an Acer Swift 3 (14" , 256 GB SSD, 8 GB RAM, full HD LCD screen, i3 7130U) for 599€ and a Lenovo Thinkpad 13 (13,3" , 180 GB SSD, 4GB, full HD IPS screen, i3 7100U) for 580-700€ (price has been fluctuating a lot recently). The Thinkpad has inferior specs, but it's lighter, smaller and arguably more robust, also Linux could work better on it, since a few Acer users have reported some bugs and issues when running Linux.
2015 Macbook Pro 15,6" Overpaid for it but why would anyone care? I like macOS and enjoy working with it. I'm straight btw.

>satisfied extremely, would recomend >future laptop hopefully won't need to change for atleast - 6-7 years more. I am considering buying spare 9cell battery and perhaps full HD monitor
I have Dell inspiron 3537, i7 4500u, and r9 m265x, 8gb ram, 240gb ssd. I bought it 5-6 years ago, until I got a desktop it was running windows and Ubuntu in dual boot. Now that I use desktop for gaming, my laptop has Mxlinux now. Everything works perfect, except the GPU. But that's a driver issue that never was supported for this GPU.

>laptop Thinkpad x201 >specs i3 330M - 8GB Ram - 120Gb SSD - TN screen - 6cell battery 4 hour battery life >other things fingerprint reader and SD card reader with express card USB 3.0 >OS and software Running : Windows 10
>satisfied extremely but i'm into old stuff of this age anyway and i like tiny laptops in general >future laptop I'll have to upgrade from its core i3 I think i'd keep it for the forseeable future
as for my older laptops i'm not sure Jow Forums would be interested anyway.
>satisfied More or less, battery life and screen are pretty bad. >future laptop Probably T460/70/80

> laptop Lenovo ThinkPad T60 > specs 2GB DDR2, Intel T5500 > satisfied? extremely, but I wouldn't run Windows on it and I can barely make A3 designs on it. I use my computer to read my emails and to write XeLaTeX documents so that's fine. > OS Fedora 28.
I bought it for 75€ and the next week my computer repair guy asked me to give him back the HP Notebook he lent me. The change was cream.
> future laptop Likely a Librem 13 running QubesOS, if I don't just install FreeBSD on my drive.
