      It should be able to handle medium level projects in 1080p. The more demanding the project, the more powerful machine you'll need. One thing I will say is because you mentioned colour correction, these don't have great colour accurate panel options so you might want to consider other options with more colour accurate displays.

      Colour accuracy is related to the panel. You'd be looking for 100% srgb or Adobe. These displays are more common on P series and X1 series. The rest is really dependent on your budget.

      Currently, for large Java projects. I use IntelliJ, eclipse, SQL Server, Javascript (VS Code for those) , DBeaver for easy db queries, Beyond Compare, NotePad++, Teams, Slack and Brave just to name a few. Most of them are running on a permanent basis. During dev sessions I use more than 50% RAM, but the CPU is idling. These machines are really tough. Anyway, before sounding too much like a Lenovo salesman I can truly say that I just love Lenovo machines.

    i decided to use one that was left with me (they abandonded it with me after i did the repair - ie never got paid) and didn't like how windows 10 started to get sluggish about 2 months into using it as a daily driver. after a week or two of having left it be i decided to repurpose it as an Android testbed. after a week of trying different distros i landed on Bliss Zenith (Android 13 based x86 port) and installed Sketchbook just for giggles. i was floored. i thoght the app wouldn't even load but it not only loaded but the pen input was like carving soft butter. GLORIOUS. this has become the cheapest stand-alone art tablet i recommend regularly. one reason i was so flabbergasted was because i also tried Sketchbook under Windows 10 on this same device and the input lag was terrible. more recently i installed the XBox Gamepass app on this device (i'm typing this on my G1 Yoga rn within Opera open to UA-cam. HI!) and the cloud gaming works great on this within Bliss IF you have a controller that supports DirectInput (XInput seems broken in Bliss Zenith). ofc cloud gaming comes with the twin caveats of good and responsive broadband and a good wifi router BUT Bliss can handle it if you can tick those three boxes. i've even used DaVinci Resolve on Windows 10 on this device and it works well enough but the renders will take some time so.. edit on the go and send your project to a beefier machine for encoding. easy-peasy. so, media consumption? yup! sketching tablet/content creation? yeah! gaming on the cloud? VERY YES. not bad at all for an 8 year old platform.

      No problem. What are the system requirements for these platforms? The GPU is a workstation unit and sometimes doesn't perform in the same way.

      @@LaptopRetrospective I would think it varies a bit? But i was within limits and allowed to install them, i think. This is the specs for the one I'm using now and experienced lag in.

      Yeah the K2100 isn't a powerhouse. So you are sitting between minimum and recommend settings for GPU performance.

    These docks must be a coming thing as I just saw a few similar items on AliExpress but I just use my cell phone for the time and have a docking unit for my laptop. Cheers from Edmonton.

      Yes, not a device for everyone but something interesting to tinker with. I'm curious to see what people might create.

      Depends on your expectations. Most modern laptops in the last 3-4 years can do a workday on one charge depending on use.

    Oh, I'm reluctant to let sketchy items onto my wifi, otherwise it looks a bit of fun.

      Understand how you feel on that. Security needs to come first.

      I known the importance of security, but I guess this little thing is only connecting to the internet to obtain time, weather, and some simple data. I think privacy is important, but I think it is so simple. As the blogger said, the CPU seems to have weak computing power, so it should not be able to access these private data. In other words, your phone can access much more than it can, why is it allowed to connect to your WiFi?

      Learn how to setup a VLAN on your local network. Life changing. Let all the IOT crap run on its own VLAN separate from your PC and cellphone VLAN.
