Need advice on a cheap/light Linux laptop for Kubernetes

Hi, it’s my first post here on Dev.to community.

I ask you guidance on this topic: i need a cheap/light replacement for a company 15’’ MacBook Pro. It will be used primarily for coding and learning with cloud-native technologies like Kubernetes, Prometheus, etc. etc.

I’d like it to have the following features:

• Light machine (13/14 inches)
• Good quad-core processor
• At least 8gb of RAM, with the possibility to upgrade to 16
• A “cheap” machine...i don’t want to carry the MacBook Pro with me when travelling abroad (i.e. conferences, meetings)

Thank you all very much
