I've got a ThinkPad T430 that came from a local shop selling off-lease laptops a few years ago, and it's been great as a dedicated Linux laptop. Even a T490 from 2019 is only CAD$300 and change off of Amazon these days, which is wild if you don't need the latest and greatest.

I used a t430 in college more than a decade ago, I've still got it but using it feels VERY antiquated.
