Well, sure, for weight. The other three I just can't tell until I try the thing for a week, it isn't spec if you can't tell anything after reading the spec.

"just enough" means running a web browser, an IDE with a few background indexers for the code base I'm working on. That's a little bit too much for the $100 craigslist laptop, but yeah you are right, a $200 Chromebook works totally fine, except it had poor screen, poor keyboard and poor storage options. Want to know why I buy laptops with low power CPUs? They come with premium non-CPU parts and is both lighter and cheaper than ones with better CPUs.

Like, it's easy, anything >1.2kg is trash for me (which is equally arbitrary as your "non-low-power" constraint). Can you find me a nice <= 1.2kg laptop with so-called "non-low-power" CPUs? If so I'd be glad to try it, as it means maybe I can replace my laptop after 10 years instead of 5.
