Work laptop choice

Which one would you pick for backend/API development? I've been mostly working on MBPs in the past, but the Lenovo looks interesting here.

  • Only boomers choose the lenovo and act like it's the greatest thing ever when it weighs as much as a brick and has the worst placement for the Ctrl imaginable

    Why do people prefer a 16” over a 13”?

      screen size. getting older. eyesight suffering. plus it's nice to have more pixel width for when I split windows up. Otherwise I prefer 13 bc of portability. plenty fine for everything else.

      16 inch no good screen size anyways for the purpose of a big screen. A monitor works for that. And with that a 13 inch works perfect for travel.
