For the science of data called learning of deep I use a dell latitude no IRL for hard mathematics thus because I am handyman no IRL this setup is repaired by myself so because dell is a constructor green about it keep of hardware this is a very good choice for user or IT worker who crash the hardware by the knowledge of this hard mathematics

Time to install Fedora37 and on what?

I have a Lenovo x140e upgraded with 16Gb mem (even though spec says 8Gb
max) and 500GB SSD, but I am looking for something perhaps newer and
perhaps won't hang at times.

Requirements are:

12" format
eraserhead pointing device (I hate touchpads!)
VGA output (for my KVM)

VGA really limits the selection, but there are cheap HDMI to VGA

adapters.  

 

Affordable from ebay or such.

There are often bargains on systems 2--3 years old (particularly now as

large enterprises are moving to Windows 11) from the  large vendors'

refurbished channels.   

A few years ago the enterprise level laptops started to get USB-C power,

typically from a (very expensive) docking station.  I'm using a DeWalt

USB-C power dongle to power a Dell Latitude 7480 from 2018 -- it is part

of a kit that also can use a DeWalt 20v battery to supply power by USB A

and C to keep cell phones going during extended power outages.  The

Latitude has both touchpad (with 2 buttons) and nipple pointers.

At work I was given a Latitude for dev work and it was terrible,
the fans turn on at the hint of doing some low CPU work.

I manged to get that replaced with e Dell Precision 3561 and that is
a lot better hardware for a dev. Only get the fans turning on when I
do long running builds, otherwise silent.
