I believe that DDR4/DDR3 SODIMM chips max out at 16GB per dimm

so to get 64GB, you need 4-dimm slots (<- hint... easy to narrow down search, but you'll have very few choices), and specific CPU models

lenovo publishes a technical PDF containing all the specs for their laptops. go browse it and see

P50 series is heavy though ("workstation" replacement) - starts at 5.6pounds

T460p/E5470 (quad core 35/45W + 32GB) = ~4pounds

~2009 Macbook Pro

Core 2 Duo Penryn 2.53GB

Trust me, it's worth it to upgrade to the latest intel architecture

I had a Dell XPS M1330 laptop (C2D Penryn). Just got a Skylake Dell E5470 laptop(i7 6820HQ 2.7ghz).... worth it, probably 3x faster

(2 cores-> 4 cores = 1x
Penryn->Skylake, maybe 0.5-1x faster clock-for-clcok
faster memory+ssd+HT, another 1x
