    Gandhalfman_ got a reaction from Senor Potato in Things you liked that disapeared from the market.   
    OP , those pointing sticks still exsist today and are under the name of "ThinkPad"

    Even Lenovo's slimest , ahem , most powerful (giggle) laptop has it.
     
    They exsist ;P

    Looks awesome, but functionality-wise... meh.

    It's definitely unique. Normally I would say it's up to the individual whether or not it looks good, but because you're asking for those opinions, I think it looks good. Normally I hate extreme minimalism when it comes to design, but sometimes it's pulled off in a clever manner, and I think In-Win did just that. Helps that it's not a bad performer, either.

    A cheap SSD and a couple more gigs of RAM and it should be great for what you need it for.

    For that particular usage scenario, it's more than enough. The older Thinkpads are still excellent machines (even if they're a bit dated by today's standards). Linux is perfect for it. 
     
    If you're able to spend a bit more, the X201 and X220 may be better options; iirc, the X220 comes with Sandy Bridge, and it's the last Thinkpad to feature the 7-row keyboard that diehard Thinkpad enthusiasts are extremely fond of.
