Thin yet Repairable Devices: HP Proves They Exist

I have a Z-series laptop and an elite book (same generation, Haswell CPUs)

The zbook is just garbage. Hot garbage. We had all of them fail due to woefully inadequate cooling. Only 2 are still working (out of 10)

The elitebook 820g2 is better. I have the only surviving one there though.

My ZBook from 2014 is still working and it's 30C in summer here, until I switch on the air conditioner. Which model did you buy and from which year? I'm asking to know if I should steer clear from newer models.

Weird, the company I used to work at had probably 100+ Z-series laptops of various generations 2013-2018 and, with very few exceptions, they all performed great.
