You know, unironically, my wife brought home an HP Elitebook for her job. Pretty decent laptops, don't know if I'd pay the $1000~ they want for it though.. bit too much hard plastic on display for my liking. Also the screen, despite being a decent resolution, has some very washed out colors.
It does feature a clit mouse though, which is kind of cool.
All in all, it's certainly better than the dv6 I had to use a few years ago.

>hard plastic
Just like thinkpads, Elitebooks shouldn't be used after the 8xxx series. Only exception is the first Folio model. The Elitebook models sold as refurbs are all made out of aluminium unibody.
Their screens are notoriously shit though, but the same goes for Thinkpads without an aftermarket one I guess.

>Hinge Problems
No thanks
I brought my 2560p for £130, comfy as fuck desu.
Only problem is that a driver for the fingerprint scanner doesn't exist for gnu/linux
>>59509334
thats a 15 year old laptop
>1366x768
>>59511028
Nigger are you dumb?
6 years old max.
I don't understand
If I want an old laptop that runs linux well I get a dankpad
If I want a new one I get an XPS
Where the fuck does the HP fit?
>>59511042
>1366x768
I seriously can't go back to this
>bad displays in 2017
Fuck off
>>59509303
That's the 8460p you fucking cuck.
I know because I shit post from one daily.
Damn your shitty thread OP. I was thining about getting a Thinkpad and now I'm considering one of these. I had pretty much made my mind up until you came along.
Faggot.
>>59509303
Is it better getting a nvidia shield tablet or the same prices thinkpad laptops?
>>59512954
>should I get some shitty gaymer tablet or an overly memed and probably outdated enterprise laptop
Seriously dude?
>>59512885
HP's equivalent to the x230 is the 2570p and it has a second drive bay and socketted CPU. Same for 2560p->x220.
Often they are cheaper too
Had one of these as a work computer.
Between the dogshit screen and the POS """""processor""""" It was literally unusable.
Swapped it out for a 2015 macbook w/ ((((retina display)))) and I love it. I don't even like macs but that elitebook gave me PTSD so bad I thank god I switched
>>59513003
To be fair it's actually a great tablet especially for the price. It's just if I can use it as a laptop then why should I get a laptop?
>>59513007
I was thinking about getting a T530...
>wife
what is this
>>59510957
how is that a problem
>>59509303
I use a macbook
>>59510957
Did you get press-to-click to work on the clitmouse as well? Can't seem to get that working on my 8560W
>>59509303
Only issue for me is the lack of ips.
>>59509303
>not installing the best OS
