>What kind of business and what kind of laptop
Art commissions and Patreon + some freelance writing. Surface Pro 2017. It works brilliantly for everything apart from the wobbly, buggy pen that Microsoft will never fix (they just broke it with an update recently, and even rolling back the update does nothing).
For my next drawing device I want a Samsung Tab and a PC. The Samsung can act as both a screen for the PC and an independent drawing pad. The PC can be the existing Surface Pro while it lasts, and then the next one will be either a normal laptop or a mini PC of some sort. While the Surface Pro has been powerful enough to run Clip Studio Paint with up to hundreds of layers at 5K resolution as well as Blender, I'd certainly prefer something with more power and memory.
I use a bluetooth keyboard of normal thickness and full key travel, none of that irritating flat "type cover" trash. When I draw, the last thing I want is for the keyboard to be attached to the bottom of the screen. It's always to the side. I've even drawn commissions on park benches and train stations with my backpack standing on the ground between my legs and the surface propped on top, with the keyboard on the bench next to me. That's not often though, mostly I work either standing at a makeshift standing desk (AirBnb place or cheap hostel room, with a chair on top of a table and perhaps a few cardboard boxes from a grocery store), sitting in bed, or at a table.
Can't beat a lifestyle where everything you need fits into one fairly compact backpack, including full camping gear and a suit. You can do art commissions one day, jump onto a bus or a motorbike taxi and go wild camp at a beach the next, then check into a hostel, take a shower, put on the suit jacket and meet new people the third.
