>his laptop isn't a ThinkPad or MacBook

>tfw too smart to fall for /g/ memes
Modern thinkpads are shit, Macbooks are shit, used laptops are shit.

>falling for the shill threads
if you have bought a laptop other than xps 13 you made a mistake :^)

Clevo master race.

Thinkpad is shit now a days, so only MacBook left as the king of all laptops. The XPS 15 is damn good though and is scary for us...

I own a Precision M90. That this was gorgeous for its time. I've been thinking on giving it other uses. The only thing that sucks is the stupid chipset limitation that makes windows recognize only 3.25 GB intead of 4 GB of ram.

For a shitty job I got a used Asus K45 and its surprisingly good for what I got. The worst part is the display and its view angles.

For various reasons I've ended up with a Surface Pro 4. It's actually pretty nice, other than thermal throttling and battery life issues. The keyboard is something else. I'm pretty fucking picky about keyboards but I can actually touch type on this thin magnetic cover thing.
I wouldn't be using it if I had to do heavy duty stuff like video rendering or the like, but for my purposes it's actually working out alright. Take that as you will.

I want to get this, just because. I'm already aware of the shit battery and muh chinks.

F A L L E N

I honestly wonder what to get next, because my current laptop is a 5 year old T520.

Would be nice to have a fresh surface to cover in stickers at some point.

>he doesn't use a smartphone for his portable needs and a workstation for power user needs

Laptops have always been shit.

>>59393028
I agree except the last one
>used laptops
In what way? Can you elaborate?

>>59395223
Sony doesn't make Vaios anymore.

The failure rate of laptops increases exponentially after like 2-3 years. Buying one that's already 2-3 years means you almost certainly will have to spend money on repairing it.

>Thinkpad/MacBook + custom desktop

The only way to go.

>>59392938
actually, it's a PowerBook G4. what now?

Try harder faggot.

I have a 2011 Macbook Pro and a Thinkpad X230 and the Thinkpad is shit in comparison, pretty much the only thing that's better is the specs.

>>59394563
Agreed.

>>59392938
>implying a fagbook is on the same leve as a thinkpad
It's not even on the same chart.

>>59398715
Not true for business laptops.
These aren't fucking cars where maintenance is required

>>59397923
do you want to inhale the cumdust of others, my nigga?

>>59393051
Precision: very bulky
Thinkpad W series: same size as the T ones

>>59400206
Then why are there so many thinkpads for parts or repair on eBay?

Macbook / XPS 13 + Custom desktop = peak human evolution

You said you can't turn it on without internet. You can. You also have a limited number of offline apps, like Android apps. You can theoretically store music on it or an SD card and play it locally via an Android app.

Idk why you're complaining about a product that clearly is not designed or intended for people like you. Their target demographic is schools and people who want a cheap laptop, and don't care about the drawbacks of a cheap, internet based laptop.

I have one because I already have a powerful desktop and wanted a cheap device that's more comfortable to shitpost from than my phone.

>>59392938

What movie?

>>59400947

A 16:10 screen on that would be perfect.

>>59401593
Not sure but I think it's Eyes Wide Shut.

>>59401775
And 4 pcie lanes in the TB port, too.
I figured they were minor problems compared to the utter shit that the new MBP looked like.

It was the good call btw, for the last few weeks I've been working on a project with a dude that has the 15 MBP and he has constant problems with his machine (also terrible performance and weird behaviors).

Moulin Rouge. First musical I've seen and It's not bad. Solid 6.5/10 imo

>>59402156

Any idea if they fixed the USB-C/WiFi issue? I find it ridiculous that any, let alone a $2400, computer can't perform such a basic task. As much as Microsoft keeps fucking Windows 10, I can't bring myself to even consider Apple's latest for the stuff they've fucked up.

>>59392938
If mobile device is laptop then who was phone?

>>59400947

this desu

All it needs to be perfect is surface/rear/side venting rather than shit tier underside thigh hoovers.

Also for it to ditch the silver underside & back for black, or even make custom designs/colours available. This is literally free money to them and a massive draw to many plebs and autists alike. Blows my mind that they haven't thought of it.

>>59402285
He didn't mention it so I'd assume it's fixed. On the other hand, here's a couple of things that I've witnessed first hand:

>usb to eth adapter not working after sleep

>>the touchbar is super useful, look at how I can scrub through videos super fast
>literally never uses it for anything else, especially when coding

And my favourite
