Ideally, I'd like something that falls between the price points of a big-box crapbook and a Thinkpad T-series but is built well enough to stand up to light-duty business use, in a work-from-home setting, without overheating daily or falling apart after a few months.
This is for someone who's somewhat disabled. They have a limited budget but also can't treat hardware gently enough for fragile consumer laptops to be a viable choice.
8GB RAM / 128GB SSD / FHD (or even HD+) non-glare screen is good enough.
Any suggestions?
