I’ll add classic Lenovo to the list, whose base level thinkpad are underspeced and have terrible screens. The fact that apple doesnt perpetually claim their machines are on sale is their last bastion of superiority

What do you mean? I scored a sweet ThinkPad deal — $2,000 off using code “SUCKER” at checkout!

You used to be able to replace/extend ThinkPad parts quite easily. We'd buy base models exclusively and just add extra stick of ram and flip the CD rom to another hard drive or battery - those were super cheap high quality laptops.

Only recently Lenovo started to solder their parts so base models lost their power :(
