From what I gather it might be the best way for me going forward to have a new PC. I see them as low as $150 on amazon that come with windows so I'd have to nuke the SSD and install something like Mint on it instead.

Maybe we can get a fundraiser going for me so I can finally get a new laptop and put this 12 year old piece of junk to bed.

I did this and I love it, I went with the tried and true t480 plus mint and it was super easy to setup and it’s decently quick and very nice to use.

I’m seeing a refurbished one on amazon for 190-230 and i think i paid about 230 a year back. I’m sure if you shop around you could definitely do 175
