Hell yeah. I’ve had a t420 for about forever, SSD+16gb upgrades, plus I put an i7 in there. Still kicking along. It couldn’t run win10 for shit… flawless with a lightweight Linux distro though :)
I was too broke to do the screen upgrades when parts were more available for doing that. Now if only I could get an OEM battery…
Mine is an X230, with the tradeoffs that entails, but I’ve been happy with it. Not even using an especially lightweight Linux on it. It’s running Fedora, and even Gnome runs fine on it, though I prefer Niri.
