Got a laptop and wow, the modifier layout is absolute garbage. Pressing C- and M- is really only possible with the right cluster and I have to use my thumb rather than palm. Might just switch to an entirely modal layout and never use the modifier keys. Otherwise, the laptop is pretty great for $200 USD. It's a Thinkpad L14 (Gen 1), has a Ryzen 5 4650U CPU and 16GB of memory. Screen is a basic 1920x1080 IPS panel but its not bad at all.
