This person, also a lawyer, is interested in local LLMs both for privacy and because they work without an internet connection, which matters when taking an old laptop to court to take notes across many cases. The realistic target, they argue, is not a 128GB setup but the old, low-spec laptops that solo practitioners actually own.
Their concrete wish is modest: sort and organise Word files on very low-spec hardware. They ask the community for the most realistic path on devices with only a handful of gigabytes of RAM.
