Why the fuck is no one talking about this?
For like 90 bucks you can have a great little SSH terminal, or even a comfy bed laptop.
Did anyone buy a pinebook yet? Strongly considering buying one.

does it run skyrim?

I don't like chicklets
>>
>>61746035
>>61745879
also, don't want a webcam and the macbook aesthetic is gross
>>
>>61745879
The website calls it an 'open source' laptop. I see that it runs Linux, but do they have blueprints etc. available for the laptop and components?
>>
>>61745879
why WHY W H Y do they use the island keyboard and a webcam
>>
>>61745879
ARM, it's more reasonable to buy an Intel laptop instead.
>>
>>61745879
I had an invite to buy one actually. Asked on here and after a little research it appeared that the company behind this is not giving a shit about supporting their devices properly, which is also a reason why it is lacking community.

If it would be some kind of """raspi3-laptop""" I'd instantly buy it, because of its great support, but not this piece of trash.

It's dirt cheap and so are all the components. The screen blows dick. Get an ASUS netbook and you get the same shit but with an actually decent screen.
>>
>>61745879
I would but
>tfw nordic and require special keyboards that no one has
feels bad man
>>
>>61745879
Already have a librebooted X200 for maximum comfy.
>>
>>61745879
1. you can't, invite only.
2. doesn't run mainline linux, or any open source linux. only proprietary outdated crap they provide.

>>61745879
>Shitty looking keyboard
>Literally a MacBook Pro clone in terms of design
>It doesn't stand out or provide something new to the table
>>
>>61746165
Use physical English keyboard until you escape the caliphate?
>>
>>61745879
>wangblows logo on keyboard
>potentially will never run wangblows
>>
>0.3 Megapixel Front-Camera
What the fuck, why even include the camera if no one is going to be able to recognize my ugly face anyways?
Sorry, I like the idea but the specs are just too shitty to even watch Netflix on this thing. Just buy a cheap tablet like the Amazon Fire HD 8.
>>
>>61746187
better remove your tripcode for maximum comfy

that's a name you fucking faggot. This is a trip.
>>
>>61745879
Why not just buy an old Thinkpad x200 or something?
>>
>>61746427
>>61746442
Yeah, fag

>>61745909
Its not x86
Could probably run emulators up to GBA well, maybe even PS1 if you use pcsx rearmed.

>>61746074
Because its cheap as fuck and those are what chink factories make now. They can only be cheap if there's economy of scale
>>
>>61746482
t-thanks .####.
>>
>>61746447
This is more portable
And im guessing it's gonna have crazy battery life because of arm + giant battery

Mfw some autistic humanoid actually typed this out on their greasy mechanical keyboard.
>>
>>61745879
Because you can get an X220 / X230 with much better specs for roughly the same price
>>
>>61746997
Where the fuck are you getting an x230 for a hundred bucks?
Fuck off, seriously.
>>
>>61747014
>He doesn't know how to use ebay
wow anon
>>
>>61747014
This: >>61747100

But x220/x230 is a buttnet

you fucking dimnwit

>>61747014
It only applies to muricans,
if you're urop don't even think about it..
>>
>>61746621
I used to repost your awoo posts when you weren't around.
>>
>>61747923
I don't post a lot just because this board is kinda a "Consumer generals" board at this point. Intel and AMD shelling isn't really my favorite thing to look at.
>>
>>61745879
>90 bucks
>buying stolen shit

>>61745879
if I wanted a cheap shitty uptrabook I'd pick a polaroid 14.1 at the local store. it's 169€ shipping-free so basically just 30€ more than the pinebook
