Its weird, I bid low on ebay for a laptop and won.
It is for a Dell Latitude 7290. Should be compatible with Windows 11.
It cost me a whopping 77.07 with taxes and shipping. Cheaper than the NVME card I plan to put in there.
There are caveats though
- No OS
- No Battery
- No AC Adapter
No problem, I have OS license.
No problem, I wanted a known fresh battery
No problem, I have AC adapters already.
Couple enhancements I am looking at with this new system.
- Mobile Data (via T-Mobile)
- Locked down secure, no usb or network boot
- Yubikey (Finally)
- USB-C Power Bank
Anyway, this is the start of something new I hope, with most of my Linux boxes at R9 and cloud ready to go to R9, hoping the laptop will be some sort of lifeboat, seed.
On the fitness status, 10k steps seems to be getting easier, still hard though, just that I can power through 9000 steps in about 100 minutes like I did today.
Also had an incredible sleep last night, I felt refreshed all day.
Cracking 340 is doable.
