Lenovo laptops

I have a Lenovo X280 for work and I used to run Ubuntu on it when I first
got it a couple years ago.  I ended up reinstalling it with Oracle Linux
since I work at Oracle (on Oracle Linux even) and it's basically against
company policy to use other Linux distros for work systems. In general,
I've never really had any issues with it.  Any of the recent issues I've
had with the system have been around library compatibility since I am
running Oracle Linux 7 (equivalent to RHEL7) and the libs are generally on
the older side for more modern applications like VSCode (I used vim most of
the time anyway).  For a productivity/coding machine it works very well.
