I wish there was anything other than ubuntu-based distros that just worked, I don't like ubuntu's philosophy, but use it because it doesn't break and works out of the box(good font rendering, stable, easy package management, good driver support, etc).

debian is good as well but the installer has been giving me crap lately so i was forced to switch to ubuntu

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.

is it worth getting a t540p for $300?

I'm assuming the buyers guide is a bit outdated.

How much should the dock for a x220 cost?

Asking "Hey guys, what's your opinion on x?" is frowned upon.
Wireless is frowned upon.
Headset requests are frowned upon.
Noise isolation ≠ Noise cancellation
If you dislike a suggestion, try giving a better suggestion to whomever asked instead of going "hurr, x sucks"

>StarVR headset has a FOV of 210 and a combine resolution of 5k, eye tracking OLED screen.
>Will only be released for VR businesses.
>Has a partnership with IMAX.
When do you think consumer VR headsets like the Vive will be superior to a multi screen setup?

It is not comfortable to wear a headset for extended periods of time. Playing my vive for an hour is fine, but I would never want to sit for a full work day with that thing on.
>>
I actually like to move around freely, and monitors allow me to do just that. Also, I dont want to have a thing strapped to my head all day. Since my life basically evolves around PC with my job and study.

As soon as it's super light and wireless, aka too late.
VR is a meme for everything but geimus. AR soon.
