Just ordered this from eBay after looking at jcs’ list again:
- Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th Gen i7-8565U 16GB RAM 512GB SSD 14" FHD Touch 
2019

Woot, back to OpenBSD as a daily driver again and looking forward to helping 
with ports and stuff.

I’m sure I violated some mailing list formatting rule, my bad.
