asaf, you mind loose a word about the spec or brand of these laptops?
The specs vary, but all laptops are about 3-4 years old. The current stock includes mostly Dell and Lenovo laptops of various models. We are not prepared to track the specs in detail, because we are also not prepared to spend the time answering specific questions and letting people pick and choose specific models. (see Principle #1 in the program page on Meta).
The goal of the program is to provide laptops to contributors who really need a reasonably-recent functioning laptop because they do not have one (i.e. have a dysfunctional laptop, only have mobile devices, etc.), not to ones who already have a reasonably-recent functioning laptop and may be interested in a slight upgrade. So enabling spec comparison seems like it would offer a very low return on the time spent.
