Get Your Job To Pay For The Laptop!
You pretty much need to be a major corporation to afford a new computer these days, and if you are going to try to convince your employer to buy you one then see if they’ll go for the ThinkPad P14s. It’s a serious machine, with a 6GB NVIDIA RTX PRO 500 Blackwell GPU to process even the largest of jobs, and the Core Ultra 7 265H sports an Intel Arc 140T GPU for other tasks. Those two components together still probably cost less than the 32GB DDR5-5600 and 1TB SSD though.
The connectivity is almost as impressive with two Thunderbolt 4 40Gbps, and two USB-A 5Gbps ports, though only a mere 1GbE NIC for wired connectivity but there is always WiFi7 to use. The 14.5″ screen is 16:10 with a resolution of 2560×1600 and a 90Hz refresh rate. The ThinkPad P14s is another in a long line of solid work laptops from Lenovo and you can check it out right here.
