Ideally, no X-window is needed, just a terminal with Emacs. Just to do some writing on the go or even at home without the distraction of YouTube just two clicks away. My first thought was [ThinkPad X220](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThinkPad_X_series#X220), often called the last great ThinkPad. It's small (12'') and cheap (30-50USD). Unfortunately, it's as heavy as my X1 Extreme, so it's not perfect. + +But what has completely blown me away was its expandability and repairability. Apple has completely broken the computer business, as even opening a laptop seems strange now. But you can easily disassemble the X220 in just a few minutes. The internet is flooded with replacement parts. Ever tried to replace the palm rest on a modern MacBook? Me neither. + +{{<youtube "T0Wvi7V3nnQ" "How to upgrade X220">}} + +There's still hope, though. The [Framework Laptops](https://frame.work/) are designed to be as repairable as possible from the start. The company even sells upgrades for a motherboard with newer chipsets. They, however, have yet to sell outside of North America, so it's a no-go for me. Also: it's a modern computer; therefore, it's expensive.
