What it is for

Laptops to carry to work 31

Light laptops to carry 92

Laptops whose listing states a weight under 1.8kg and no separate graphics card. Only a fifth of listings state a weight at all, so this is the light machines we can prove, not every light machine.

Laptops for programming 276

Laptops whose listing states at least 32GB of memory and a terabyte of storage, which is what a container stack and a few checkouts ask for.

Laptops for writers 33

Laptops whose listing states a screen of 14 inches or less and a weight under 1.8kg. Only a fifth of listings state a weight at all, so this is the portable machines we can prove, not every portable machine.

Laptops for making music 178

Laptops whose listing states at least 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage, and no separate graphics card, because a sample library wants memory and disk rather than a GPU.

Laptops for students 84

Laptops whose listing states a weight under 2kg and at least 256GB of storage.

Laptops for company fleets 202

A professional edition of the operating system, 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage. The professional edition is what domain joining and disk encryption need, and it is the line most purchasing departments start from.

Each group is decided by a rule read from the specifications the seller stated, applied to every laptop here at once. Nothing is tagged by hand, so this machine joined the day its listing said it belonged.
