Hello Graeme,
Of course! Therefore my suggestion to spend the money on sensible periphery, like a 4k monitor, instead of investing into (mostly) superfluous calculational power. The Lenovo was just an example that I know by own usage. Any other with similar processing power may do as well.
To cover all angles:
At least this is what I consider as relevant for an all-purpose notebook. The newest notebook comps are frequently not so persuasive in these aspects ...
Cheers,
Petra

Quote:I'm replacing an old machine (6 years or more) and as it will probably be the last one I buy before I die, I'm trying to cover all the angles.
To cover all angles:
- Acquire reasonable periphery
- Take care of good interconnectivity: USB-C, USB-3.x, different monitor options, existence of a dock, ...
- Exchangeability of batteries, possibility to upgrade "internals" (RAM, SSD, ...)
At least this is what I consider as relevant for an all-purpose notebook. The newest notebook comps are frequently not so persuasive in these aspects ...
