QUICK! You are stuck with one for the next 15 years, you have

Right, because I don't even know what the laptop on the left is. I know it's some kind of MacBook but don't know which.

Thinkpad. ez

BTFO, you still going to die

x220

Then slap the most I can in it. Pretty sure it will take at least 8GB of memory.

>>57997767
i'm already stuck with a x230 for 4 years, i can deal with the remaining years easily

>>57997767
the one on right

do i have to use it though, i already got a t420 and x230

which one has higher specs?
15 years is a long time

>>57997767

ThinkPad, when (if) it breaks down it can actually be repaired.

>>57997767
Thinkpad, of course. Is this some kind of trick question?

Plot twist, Thinkpads screen is not working.

>>57997767
The Macbook, obviously.

x220 with 9 cell + slice

>>57997951
Then you replace it yourself

My only computer for about 4 years has been a 14" T60 with 2GB of memory and a 1.6GHz duo processor.

So that x220 would be an upgrade for me.

>>57997951
Buy one for a few quid (at a higher resolution than it probably came with before).

This is why the ThinkPad is the correct answer: you can just replace anything that breaks.

>>57997779
It's the shitty single-port one.

>>57997767
The thinkpad, because the Mac will break in 2-3 years and become utterly useless, while you'll be able to get parts and keep the X220 running the full 15 and then some.

>>57997861
It can be expanded to:
>Intel® Core™ i7-2640M (2.8GHz, 4MB L3 cache)
>16GB (2x8GB) PC3-12800 at 1600 MHz possible

That should keep you going for 15 years

Already stopped using a 2011 MBA (slow overheating garbage at this point) in favour of that exact one on the right. Only 1 year newer, performs like it's 5 years newer. Easy decision.

>>57997951
Good, most of them come with a piece of shit TN panel that belongs in the trash anyway and it takes like 30 seconds to swap out with an IPS.

>x220
there is no way that rMB will last 15 years (sierra doesn't even work on 2009 MBPs) and i can't do anything to fix it.

>>57997767
Not that difficult, there's only one possible solution.
In fact I'm already stuck on that plan, have two x220 and 3 extra batteries, one slim and two extra large.

Thinkpad
I like Apple but id prefer my Autodesk suite not to have a retarded ui

>>57997975
get the small one, comes in handy when you know you need 3~4 hours of battery and you want to shave a bit of weight

The MacBook. I couldn't deal with peasant resolution for the next 15 years. For all of you talking about slapping various upgrades on it, these are meant to be unchanged, its not the same machine if you change a component. The ThinkPad will most likely fail before the MacBook in some way. The ThinkPad is maybe 30% more powerful roughly, doesn't matter too much though because it'll be running Vindoos which is shit anyway negating any benefits. You can edit 4K footage on the MacBook, the ThinkPad can't do that.

x220 easily, because it'll actually last for 15 years. the macbook will die in 7.

That's not why you buy a business laptop, anon.

>>57997767
ThinkPad, because the core M in MacBook is cucked as fuck.... For a shorter period I'd go with the MB so the price of X240 can fall.

>>57998421

>you're stuck with one for the next 15 years

I would imagine, to make this something more challenging that you wouldn't be allowed to alter anything. If you are the obvious choice is the ThinkPad.

I already have a x201 for daily (college) use and I'm pretty happy with it

Maybe one day I find a 220 with a good price and upgrade

I'd pick left only because of the screen, 15 years with a TN screen is torture. I'd then install Linux on it.

The mac book would break much faster than the thinkpad.

>>57997767
thinkpad. I can replace everything inside of it if there is a larger change in technology. Also
>picking macbook

>you don't have a pc for the next 10.

X220. If i wanted to i could install macOS on it anyways.

>>57997767
I decline both, as I already have the Precision version of the XPS 15.

>macfags will defend this

Macbook any day, after being fed /g/s' lies I finally woke up from this mass hypnosis and realised that the ThinkPad is a fucking garbage meme hyped up by autists who's 5 years behind in technology.
If you have plans on buying a thinkpad, just don't.

>>57997767
X220 easy.

fuck that homosexual macshit with non replaceable parts and no ports

My library has those thinkpads and they're fucking useless. Trackpad hardly ever works. Definitely going with the macbook. Just install linux on it anyways

>>57999278
>>57999293
Wow you're really making yourself look better than the mactoddlers, anon :^)

Would choose left if the keyboard wasn't ass, x220 it is. Can it at least be an x220t?

>>57997779
It's literally called a MacBook, the bezel contains the full model name.

Hm, I guess the right one then

>>57997767
i wanted to kill myself after 10 seconds of using the keyboard on the macbook so i'm going to go with the thinkpad

the macbook has barely any key travel

but hey it's 3mm thinner, because apparently that's the only spec that hipster faggots care about

>>57998381
/thread

after using macbooks for a while its impossible to go back using that thinkpad garbage.

It just feels so awful

>>57999831

I would take the MacBook. The Thinkpad looks a bit old and clunky.

Tfw you would take à thinkpad when you have free mac

Nobody buys ThinkPads for personal use. They're business machines ordered by the hundreds and given out to the plebs in a comapny. Its the business world's version of mil-spec, it's good enough for the intended purpose. People only like them here because they can be bought for cheap when companies renew their machines and dump the ThinkPads, they had to be compatible with many things software-wise too which is useful. ThinkPads are the best non-Mac laptop, but Macs will always be the best laptops running the best OS for personal use.

It quite literally is the most advanced operating system which exists. Windows, look at 10, that's the future of Windows. Linux, look at the clusterfuck state that's in. Give me a Bitcoin address so I can send you some money, I want to pay for English lessons for you so you can expand your vocabulary past 'fruity' and 'toddler', you don't seem to know any other English words. Which province of India are you in? Maybe Western Union would be better.

>>57998344
How are you supposed to hold it with one hand then?

>>57999950
In this case, the difference in power is small because of the thinkpad's old hardware. It's ports are all really old. The mac's higher resolution is the most important thing. The majority of computer usage involves reading, and fonts are a lot smoother and clearer on a hi res screen.

>>58000136
This hasn't been the case for a while. It merges them normally.

>>58000097
There are 0 modern windows laptops with 16:10 aspect ratio with specs that match the mbpr. Also, Apple is the only company that does hidpi right.
>lol let's slap a 4k screen on a 13" laptop and then complain about scaling issues

>>57998196
My thinkpad came with a delicious non-touchscreen IPS. I love it.

Why would anyone stand for anything else for their expensive work-computer?

>>58000225

Go away Louis.

>>57997924
This. And the macbook becomes completely unusable after 5 years since the battery can't be replaced and everything is glued together.

>>58000294
>0 computers with spec that match the MacPro

You are right, since even a Windows laptop that costs half is faster than a MacPro.

>>58000294
Microsoft makes 3:2 laptops and tablets.

True, I think the surface book is the best Windows laptop you can get for this reason. Only problem is you can't get a 15" display

I already have a multi-touch and pretty buffed thinkpad, ty

The one with better internal specs. Obvious as shit.
