The only legit shit you have is the shit screen, the keyboard is subjective but I'd say it's still better than what you get with other newer laptops. A T420 costs like $200, if you absolutely must fall for the lightness meme the T420s is the same price.

T420

I don't want to fall for the thinkpad meme, but if I want a core i series laptop with upgradable ram for cheap, what other options do I have?

>>58291551
You got the wrong one you stupid piece of shit.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>58292225
the faggotry is people living in silicon valley thinking they're god's gift to man. it has nothing to do with the brand of laptop they use (and if you're such a technological determinist that you think your arrogance is a dependent variable on your laptop (or, hell, vice versa), then you're either insane or retarded).

go to the battlestation threads, it's full of retards who fall for /g/ memes

>>58292476
i hide the battlestation threads and a few others. i believe that there are a lot of losers here who actually value the opinions of people on 4chan. those people are sick in the head, but then there are lots of online forums for people with mental disorders.

op and other idiots don't understand the point of the used thinkpad circlejerk, which is our answering the question:

>what is the most functional, upgradeable, repairable, moddable, every-os-compatiable laptop, with the most helpful community, that you can buy for less than $200?

laptops are little bundles of compromise. a lot of people have settled on a t420, or an x201, or whatever, because they decided a used thinkpad has enough of what they need for the price. "screen isn't 4k" or "not thin enough" were compromises worth making

>>58292843
Even if you doubled that price, what would be a better laptop?

>>58292843
>"screen isn't 4k" or "not thin enough" were compromises worth making
Not even compromises, 4k on a 14" screen is just stupid and "muh thinness" is for weak homosexuals who can't even carry a book, I'd take proper cooling and functionality over le thin memes.

>>58291879
>>58292600

The display of T420 is absolutely horrible.

I want a laptop that is cheap and can support my 50 + tab browsing

What is a better option than a memepad?

>>58293225
Yeah, that I can agree on, but the rest is good.

>>58291551
The cumstained chinkpad meme on here is as bad as macfag circlejerking.
If you cared even the tiniest bit about technology, you would already know that the XPS 13 is the best laptop you can currently get right now.

>>58292291
the x220 is much better than the x220t.
The x220t has a single hinge, meaning it is a very expensive bobble head when you type on it.

>>58292843
I still get 6 hour battery on my x220 which is enough to last all lecture where I compile something all the time without bringing a power plug.
I usually don't as I don't like the sound of the fan.
The only compromise I do is speed.
I could get a much faster computer, but the new x models is not so fast I want to "upgrade".

new """"""""""""Thinkpads""""""""""""" are a cancer

>>32 GB Ram for muh facebok browsing
Why would you get a laptop with 32GB of RAM? I use 4 and it works fine.

>>Shitty keyboards, but HN/g approved!!!
Better than the new MacBook. If you're that upset over it, get a mechanical memeboard, you autist.

>>Shitty screen, but HN/g approved!
Why do you need some 4k OLED shit eating up your battery? The screen is more than good enough for basic web browsing, programming, and word processing.

>>Heavy as fuck, but HN/g approved!
Are you a manlet? Why don't you have a laptop bag?

>>Shitty webcam but HN/g approved!
Nobody wants to see your thigh high striped socks except the homosexual teens on /b/.

>The x220t has a single hinge, meaning it is a very expensive bobble head when you type on it.
I don't know how different the x220t hinge is from the x201t hinge, but the hinge is rock solid on my x201t

You know what you'll be using the hardware for, so instead of buying hardware more in line with your use case, you choose to purchase something different because some nerds on a mongolian throat-singing forum said it was a good idea.
