theoretically, how many tab functions need to be disabled in order to get them working to like back in firebird, when it made sense?

What is it that makes you act like this?

Why not seed? If anything seeding is easier, its one less click than canceling it.

I'm an adult so I don't pirate anymore, but I never got this mentality among thieves. Why not work together?

Holy fucking shit, this is the worst word processor I've ever used. It's incredibly sluggish and memory intensive, the UI is obfuscatory and arbitrary, but only after you can dig through the cesspit of ugly nonsensical icons and geometry that hide it from you, and not a single feature is clearly demarcated or placed where you would expect it to be. The worst part is that there are a few nice features like the citation system but they're all underdeveloped and hidden behind so much bullshit that you'd rather perform their functions manually. I'd rather use an electronic typewriter than this steaming hot pile of shit. Word is the flagship Microsoft Office product so I'm assuming all the other components of the suite are even more fucked.

Why do businesses and schools and other institutions still pay out the ass to use this trash?

What? Excel and Outlook are the flagship products. Businesses pay for those and some other products come with them.

Why is fedora not the go to GNU/linux? I've been using it the past few weeks, and literally have had no problems with speed or software installation. Is it because it's not bleeding edge or what?

It is pretty bleeding edge. That's a reason to not use it.

IRC: #/tpg/ on irc.rizon.net

Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).
----
If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W/P SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™

Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", ultraportable
----
Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap.
>Excellent keyboards - tactile feel and quiet.
>Great durability: chassis uses a magnesium rollcage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels.
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing in the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

I have never been the first one to start a general ever, so doing that was pretty cool. I came here because I now own an x220 and an x230 (just bought the x230 for my aunt), and was willing to answer questions anyone may have about either model.

So I have cut down the list to three distros now:
1. Xubuntu
2. Korora
3. Manjaro Xfce


Which one should I install? Note that I am coming from windows 8.1 and I'm looking for the one distro I can live the rest of my life with. So it has to be user friendly.
