You have to post why you didn't buy a ThinkPad and didn't fall for the ThinkPad meme
Even a poor sap faggot like me got a better laptop than today's shitty modern laptops out there
eGPU support so you can hook desktop gpus up to your chinkpad caddy support so you can slip in 1-2 more ssd or hdd and ditch your optical drive
I bought a T420i packing a 2nd gen i7 2.80ghz and 8GB RAM 14 inch w 1600 x 900 off Craigslist for $160 and I'm loving the fuck out of my new chinkpad vs my old shitty hp dv5 on AMD Turion II which is a snail compared to my i7
When will you realize you've made a grave mistake in your laptop decision/s and purchase/s instead of buying and grabbing a chinkpad for yourself, Cred Forums?
What's your fucking excuse?

Normos will pay top dollar for something that visually appealing rather than functional

I am on a T400 right now I got from an auction for twelve dollars. It was missing the battery, hdd, optical drive, and ac adapter. I got all that for about $50.
So about $62 in and I have a pretty good laptop. It feels really solid and good to type on. The CPU is only a Core 2 Duo but it still gets the job done for anything I'd want to do with it that I'd do on a laptop. I have my desktop for the heavy work.

I literally just needed a Facebook machine so I got a Chromebook instead

I have a t430 and an x201 on the way. The t430 had a horrible screen. I feel like it gave me eye cancer.

Keep your cum encrusted laptops in /tpg/. The real official laptop of Cred Forums is the XPS 13.

1600x900 TN is fucking awful. Sorry I don't want my eyes to get cancer.

>paying more to be able to do less
Jeremiah Green
modern gookovo shitpads are barely distinguishable from walmart laptops these days
that piece of shit gook company ruined the line

>who cares about weight >who cares about battery life >who cares about the screen >at least I can cum on my laptop and have no water damage!

>tfw you have both
I bought a T420 for $150 the other day to test out distros before I install them on the XPS. Currently have fedora on the thinkpad and its comfy af

As someone who's using a T420s with a 1600x900 TN screen, I can confirm that it's utter fucking garbage. Love everything else, though, can I fix the shit screen in any way? I know there was a kit but it was discontinued.

T420 X201 X200 T61 Spent less than 400 on them total, so cheaper than a shitty Acer The T420 especially because I don't miss my desktop at all since I'm dorming. X201 is great for taking to the library and such

fedora is amazing
Julian Campbell
i've got an X200 for €40. Put livreboot and trisquel on it. Never looked back at microshaft
Zachary Rivera
I got Y50 with quad core i7 and decent enough gpu for $800-900. Swapped out hdd for an ssd and I don't need a ThinkPad now.
Gabriel Morris
I only want facebook so i got a macbook pro instead that fits my desires
Jace Martin
aftermarket ThinkPads are such a ridiculous bargain i cannot imagine buying anything else
Dylan Gomez
I need something on which I can edit video, use photoshop and illustrator and listen to music without hiccups. That mean I need an SSD, a dedicated graphics card and an average cpu (i5). That means the price will go up and it's the same shit as any other good quality laptop.
Jaxson Fisher
I don't want Intel ME.
Daniel Perez
A x230 from 2012 can do all that. At the same time. Even a x201 would be good for work like that.
Cameron Cook
>garbage GPU >garbage display >garbage look&feel >PREVIOUSLY OWNED well I don't know
Noah Torres
why though? I bought the 3rd gen on launch and its the best device i've owned, it's like a non shit macbook.
