To start off with a bit of a background- I'm 20 years old and a college student attending The University of North Florida in hopes of earning a Bachelors in Computer Science. My Macbook pro recently died on me, to I assume overheating. This got me thinking. While digging through years and years of old laptops looking for a viable short term replacement, I came across my dad's old Thinkpad Yoga 14. I remembered how much I used to love this keyboard. This laptop had respectable specs for the time, packing an dual core 4th gen i5 mobile chip, 8 gigs of ram, and a geforce 825m gpu. After making a few upgrades to it, like swapping in an extra 8 gigs of ram, and replacing the 1tb spinning rust with a 128gb Sandisk SSD, I got windows set up and started installing some of my commonly used programs. When I was going through this setup, I realized that it wasn't really that slow. While i definitely noticed it's it's age while using Eclipse and VScode, I decided to switch to it for a little while. One month later i am still using this dated laptop and am now considering a replacement. I am looking at the new Dell XPS 13, or the Thinkpad X1 Yoga gen 5. I recently saw LTT's review on the Dell XPS 15 and 17 inch calling it the perfect laptop. So naturally i wanted to get an opinion of the X1 Yoga gen 5 from the same people so i could finalize my decision. My reason for writing this forum post is to ask the wise team of LTT to make a full review of the X1 yoga. Here is the link to the X1 Yoga that I was considering: https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpad-x1/X1-Yoga-Gen-5/p/22TP2X1X1Y5

Moca, or Multimedia over Coax alliance, to my knowledge, Uses Coax to run a 1.5 GHz Signal, that would carry multimedia from a PC or Repeater, while your Cable company runs HDTV through 3 Ghz, on the same line. This is fascinating to me but there is little to no documentation on this, there are very few people that i have seen on the internet that use this. If someone could explain this in more detail that would be great. The use case for this technology is maybe an older house that doesn´t have ethernet wiring through the house, as my situation is. Powerline networking can be fairly unreliable in these older houses, so i chose not to pursue this.
