Hey /g/uys, looking to buy my first thinkpad. Will probably install arch on it. Budget is around $200. Will just be used for school, work, programming, nothing heavy. Any recommendations? was thinking about this:

If you really are 35 you wouldn't care much about the internet, since you lived most of your youth without it.

You would probably care more about your rotting commodore 64 in your fucking basement.

13" is the only place where 2560x1440 is acceptable. If you have a 24" inch monitor you should be using 4k. 27" should be 5k.

>>57949045
/g/ is too retarded to understand pixel density still.
