I&#x27;m desperately hanging on to my T500 daily work machine. It was the last generation with 16:10 screens and the second-to-last with the good keyboard layout.<p>With an SSD and maxed RAM it&#x27;s still viable, but the C2D processor is a real bottleneck. Trouble is, any machine I could replace it with would be a processor upgrade and an everything else downgrade.<p>Edit: actually the Macbooks have great 16:10 screens, so there&#x27;s at least that option. Unfortunately they come with a long list of downsides of their own.
