Last year, I decided to replace my aging Lenovo ThinkPad T460s. Originally, I had planned to replace it with a Lenovo ThinkPad T14s (Gen 2) but with the supply chain issues and chip shortages, I was looking at an estimated delivery timeframe of over twelve weeks to get a custom configured T14s.

I remember getting my very first laptop. It was a Toshiba Satellite 330CDT running Windows 95 though, it wasn’t my first choice. I really wanted an IBM ThinkPad. I had my eye on one that I really liked but the IBM ThinkPad was extremely expensive.

If you haven’t made the move to Apple Silicon yet, it’s not a bad idea to start thinking about it and preparing for your eventual move to Apple Silicon, provided you intend to remain within the Apple ecosystem.
