I used to run plan9 exclusively (main OS) between around 2004-2010 and I
had a lot of luck with Compaq and Thinkpad (Lenovo). In fact, I was
considering doing this again... but... instead of buying a newer laptop and
worrying about chip compatibility, I actually am considering buying an
older compatible Thinkpad on Ebay. They are only a couple hundred dollars
now and honestly are fine speed-wise to run something as low intensity as
plan9. Something to consider.
