Lenovo or ASUS? Trying to figure out which laptop to go with.

Which company has a better reputation (in quality, privacy, pricing…), or are they both bad?

EDIT: Please see https://lemmy.world/post/39088746, I have come the the conclusion that both Lenovo and ASUS are extremely terrible, anyone who sees this post should go straight to framework laptop

Get a refurbished thinkpad, should still last a lot longer than a brand new consumer line one.

Is a ThinkPad good for gaming? I’m actually considering a high-end ThinkPad.

Thinkpads are enterprise machines, so they aren’t really designed for gaming. But there’s a lot of overlap with things like graphics rendering, so they do have some options.

The T series is the standard corporate line (usually T14) for the average office worker. These sometimes have a dGPU available. You’d probably want something in the P line, but those are much more expensive.
