Homelab on a laptop (alien.top)

Understood that general advice is not to run a homelab on a laptop. But if I were to go down the path of a laptop homelab and went out to buy a new laptop for the sole purpose of using it as a homelab, are there any suggestions for makes/models etc? I'm expecting to need about 64gb ram and 1tb storage. I'm just not sure on processor. Not bothered about the quality of the display or GPU. Many thanks

Worth it, low cost low power built in ups. Add cooling, Watch the batteries, might go bad swell etc. add external storage
