Just ordered a used ThinkPad T14 Gen3 (i5-1245U / 16GB / 512GB / 14" WUXGA) on Rakuten for ¥65,800 − 10,000 pts (~¥55,800). Hope it ships — merchant is on many marketplaces, so they cancel order if stock is out.
Replacing my NEC LaVie (always hot, fan always on, no settings at all in UEFI).
If I resell for ¥50,000, net cost is ~¥5,800, nearly free.
Then install CachyOS + experiment with Niri.
