I've got a used T495 bookmarked at $650. It's been awhile since I spent more than $1k on a computer so I don't feel I need something that much. I've been using a T430 for years if it I could get the 64-bit software I wouldn't care about upgrading.
Ahh, ok. I have recently purchased a few used HP Envy X360 laptops for family members cheaper than that. They're well built and dirt cheap used. One was i5/8GB ($380) another i7/16GB($500).
I had a Lenovo Yoga i7/12GB that I picked up for $700 that I used for a few weeks and sold to a friend.
I also have to use a new Dell Precision for work, and it's ok. Though I use it with a thunderbolt dock (2 monitors, mouse/keyboard). So not much experience with using the actual laptop.
Anyways, hope this helped share some options.
Yeah thanks I have a better list to check into now.
You used some form of Linux on those or just Windows?
I've used mint on the HPs since they are extremely user friendly for my less than tech savy family members.
I had debian on the yoga for a bit, but I didn't use it for anything besides web browsing and a bit of youtube.
