Also - I'm not looking for alternative configurations. I have a laptop, a tablet, a cell phone, and a desktop. I have a WIRED old-school USB mechanical keyboard that I'm rather fond of and not interested in replacing. I keep all of my data and most of my apps and programs on a thumb drive and use my hard drive for the OS and a few programs that HP has decided can't be deleted. My laptop is a gaming laptop.
If I were to buy a new laptop just because it's smaller and has windows 11, I'd still need to stick it on the shelf under my desk, use my 27" monitor, and my wired mechanical keyboard, and my bluetooth mouse. (and yes the monitor is HDMI, though I don't have it hooked up that way)
And - similarly to Dell, you can't pay me enough to own an Apple. If I was interested in a new operating system I'd switch to Linux.
