Found this on eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/276275087332 . I’m looking to downsize from a gaming laptop to something more portable that can handle light coding better than an iPad but doesn’t need to run modern games. I’m trying to figure out the catch. It’s a certified refurbed Gen 2a X13 that’s like $100 cheaper than any other seller on eBay. Seems like a solid deal for the use case if anyone else is bargain hunting.

Apparently certified refurbished stuff on eBay is supposed to come with original or new accessories, but who knows. A charger is an accessory, right? Otherwise I’ll make up the price difference with a replacement.

Old thinkpad trip report: it arrived with the charger and looked brand new. Threw Fedora on it, set up powertop with Linux sleep and it’s pushing my iPad back to a media device. The build quality on this thing is insane. It was refreshing to have a non Apple hardware device live up to a reputation of quality. The weight is awesome too. My old laptop was a 15” ROG Strix so it didn’t really provide a portable experience. I forgot how nice it is to have a full-os device with good battery life and a form factor and heat profile that means you can actually use it as something you can carry along. I kinda want to buy another one for my wife.
