Low hanging fruit, but whatever. It is what it is.

I have a Framework and it beats the shit out of every Lenovo I have ever used.

Thinkpad not always was lenovo

Are you trying to say that the Thinkpad line was owned by IBM in the 90's? Because...so what?

I was originally planning on getting a Surface Pro 11 or other ARM laptop as my next laptop, but one day I was thinking about an old CLEVO P150HM1 which tore everything apart, and outperforms my 2015 T450, while being made in 2009. Needless to say, I got a lot more tolerant of the idea of buying an X86 laptop as my new laptop. I also realised that the price range an SP11 involved also allowed for a Framework Laptop 13. I'm saying all this to not conflict with the rest of my comment history, but in summary: Long live the Framework!

EDIT: This probably won't happen, I've been seeing some γαμάτα deals for newer ThinkPads here lately.
