What model is this and how much?

I want a new laptop but literally no point on spending more than a few hundred on tech that will be quickly outdated and XPS are usually...not cheap

Also: what happened to the dell outlet. Used to be able to pick some real bargains up there. Now outlet laptops are pretty much the same price as new.
>>
Why would I need a laptop? I don't work at some hipster company too cheap to set up real offices so they force people to work at Starbucks.
>>
>>56367311
got one and my only gripe was the gnarly coil whine that got much worse when scrolling. Other than that it was the quietest computer. They wouldn't fix it so I returned it.
>>
>>56367311
this is literally an ad
>>
>>56367311
Because there's no Atom option.
>>
>>56367311
Because the Yoga 14 i7 (2015) rapes it for half the price

>Why don't you have one yet?
Because my T520 is plenty of laptop for me, and I have more important things to spend my money on.
>>
>>56367311
I have a similarly speced ideapad.
>>
>16:9
No thank you.

cool
is it under $200?
>>
>go on dell websites

And they really except people will buy those overpriced laptops ? Who the fuck is dumb enough ?

Enjoy your glossy screen.

Why not 16.04? This doesn't make sense.
>>

>This doesn't make sense.
What doesnt make sense is the network manager still being broken after the 16.04.1 release

you nicely listed them out for me
1080p is too small to comfortably read without scaling on a 13" screen, and 3200x1800 obviously requires scaling (at least it can do proper 4:1 scaling)
it also has ubuntu on it which would be fine for a server, but not for a computer I'm using.
and for me I want a quadcore i7, not a dualcore low voltage part.
>>
>>56370604
Yes, HP and dell have them too on the good models
>>
>>56370440
Yes, laptops tend to have mobile processors. Genius deduction you have there shit dick.
>>
>>56370607
>1080p is too small to comfortably read without scaling on a 13" screen
>tfw years of companies shitting out 15.5 inch 1366x768 monstrosities means reasonable resolutions need scaling to deal with small UIs
>>
>>56367311
isnt that overkill if you wanna run linux?
>>
For those shitting on the i5-6200u, my laptop has it, running Windows 10 paired with a Radeon M330. It's not too bad. I can edit 1080p video in Adobe Premiere, use Photoshop etc and it's fine. It's also nice and energy efficient for when you're only browsing the web. I certainly wouldn't recommend it for people who do regular video production or gaming, but for other tasks it holds up well.

>>56367311
Waiting for thinkpad refresh and / or kaby lake
>>
>>56367311
>not mentioning the price

dude tell us how much you have to pay for it
>>
>>56371092
It'll save you from 100 dollars if you want to buy a new laptop (you just can pirate windows and wipe ubuntu)
>>
>>56370607
>Linux is only for servers meme
Never used anything but OSX/Windows, have you?
>>
I have the mid-2013 model.
It overheats (and throttles) very easily, even after cleaning the fan and replacing the thermal paste.
There is just no space for a heatsink big enough to handle an "ultrabook" i7.
Dell also doesn't want to sell parts. They only want to send a technician to replace it for you, even if I can easily do it myself.
But the screen is nice, it's small and light and that's what I like about it.
I should have bought a MBP though.
>>
>>56370613
And every Thinkpad.
>>
>>56367311
Price?
>>
>>56371702
You got the $100 save from the price of Windows? And anyways, pirating isn't necessary since G2A.com has windows keys for like $20
>>
>>56371762
I've used ubuntu as my main OS when I was at school
now that I have my macbook I never want to use it on the bare metal of my main machine again.
in a server? fuck yes, I love it.
but on my main machine? I'd rather stab my eyes out

>thinkpad t460
>14" FHD matte screen
>i5-6200U
>two batteries, the external one can be pulled out and replaced while the system is running

>good build quality, unlike dell xps shit

best purchase ever, never going back to dell
>>
>>56371092

Not if you launch a VM with Windows or Android-x86
>>
>>56371618

Starts at 1,000- all the bells and whistles maxed out ends just north of 2500.
>>
>>56367311
You can install Ubuntu (or any OS) on any computer.

And because Ubuntu is preinstalled I don't get a free windows OEM key.

Why should I buy this again?
[barebone notebook masterrace]
>>
>>56373193
>Free OEM key.
The OEM license is included in the notebook's price.
>>
looks like it doesn't have a fan
>>
Horrible design. No one beats the ThinkPads...
>>
>>56367311
but i already own one
