If i am looking for an OLED laptop with a trackpoint or pointing stick, is $1500 the current going rate since Lenovo is the only company? Or should i look at Dell's or HP's from a few years ago that are under $1k but windows 11 supported? thanks in advance

Same, seems like light oled laptop prices are a tad high.

It is very unfortunate that their pre-built models don't come with the haptic trackpad. You have to use the custom build and pay more for the same specs Frown

I think the better ssd is worth it personally, very few use cases where the difference in CPU would be noticeable

Better is subjective. Lunar Lake is for those that prioritize battery life over raw processing performance.
