Indeed, I still hold on to my trusty ThinkPad T420 for that reason (and the excellent Linux support). Two batteries can be used at the same time, one of them hot-swappable.
The T420 has dual batteries? Weird, my T430s (not recommended btw, but I got it for free) doesn't have those. My x250 has dual batteries though.
Not all variants, and maybe not in all markets. I will try to remember to get the SKU on it and post here.
OK. I think the 's' denotes a budget device.
Even without the 's' suffix the 420 model came in a range of configurations available.
No I meant the T430s:
Yeah I was gonna say, there has to be some ThinkPad variant that... comes pretty close to hitting these requirements.
