Thinkpad X220 and X230 probably are too much modern for Hurd.
In my case, I use Thinkpad T60 (and similar models, like R60e) and T410.

These models have good compatibility with Hurd

I'm planning on purchasing an older laptop to run the Hurd on actual
hardware.  Any recommendations?  The mentioned Thinkpads X220 and the
X230 seem like good candidates.  Are there other options?

Ideally I want something that others may want to buy.  I know that the
Hurd is not so stable for everyday use-ability...
