Elitebooks use a magnesium alloy for the chassis. They also have hardware features that the macbook doesn't have. Like the spill resistant keyboard (which would be useful for the apple fans, considering how often I see a picture of macbooks sitting on a bed with a glass of milk sitting on top of them.

In no particular order:

>Magnesium alloy chassis
>a full magnesium alloy chassis creates an incredibly strong case to protect the top and bottom of the notebook against rigorous usage. Magnesium alloy is 18 times stiffer than comparable plastic (PC/abs) components. This solid foundation makes a big difference when it comes to protecting your notebook against rough days in the working world.

>Aircraft-inspired construction
>inspired by aircraft construction for its durability, precision and lightness, our new magnesium/aluminum display enclosure uses an inner magnesium shell with a honeycomb pattern that is thermally bonded to an anodized aluminum sheet. When your notebook gets squeezed in an overhead baggage compartment, you’ll be glad you’ve got our business rugged construction on your side. This layered construction is 50 percent stronger than magnesium alone, and helps protect the notebook’s display against impact.

>To demonstrate the strength of the HP DuraCase, we applied up to 1,800 pounds of force to a vehicle tire resting on the display enclosure. The HP DuraCase protected the display up to 1,000 pounds of force, and the notebook continued to operate attached to an external display when subjected to up to 1,800 pounds of force. The HP DuraCase is designed to handle the daily stress of a mobile lifestyle.

>When your notebook takes a hard hit, there’s a lot on the line. a cracked display, broken case or bent hinge could leave you with an inoperable PC—and bring your work to a halt. With so much at stake, you need a business notebook that’s business rugged. That’s the HP Elitebook series—notebooks that are equipped with a spill-resistant keyboard, a shock-mounted hard drive and a long-life battery.

My old EliteBook came with a 1920x1080 display and a 7200RPM HDD. Thankfully, due to it not being a shitty Apple product, I can change that HDD out for an SSD without any problems.
The only problem with it is that the battery life isn't fantastic, but mind you, it has an old SB i7, and I typically never have to use it somewhere that I can't just charge the laptop.

So you are saying that apple is the superior product simply due to it being owned and ran by whites, even if the products are produced in Asia? Is that your argument to why the Apple computer is more rugged than the Elitebook? If so, I'm going to need to see some sources that explain how simply by being designed by white people, a product is automatically tougher.

>If you were really white, you would support Apple.
I do. I own an iPhone 6s. That doesn't mean their Macbooks are tougher than Elitebooks, and, if they aren't, then Macbooks are not better than Elitebooks "in every way."

The sad part is that even with all those negatives it's still the best laptop on the market. The user experience when it works is unparalleled and the screen is simply drop dead gorgeous.

Meanwhile windows trackpads are shit and the screen it uses often are plagued by pwm issues or are just straight up inferior. If there's even a single windows laptop with a screen that comes close to the mbp I would jump ship immediately.

Apple is superior because they have the best designers, engineers and industrial designers in the world of any company.

Look at the white papers about User Interface from the 1980s about human interaction. Apple is the only one that gives a shit about this stuff.

All these other companies just live off Apple's coattails, especially the unibody design that came out literally 7 years ago and everyone jumped on it.

I'm not going to even get started on Wangblows 10, that piece of shit botnet can never live on any computer I'm near or I will throw up.

Once again, you aren't explaining how a Macbook is superior "in every way," in comparison to an elitebook.

I'm not even going to bother fighting you on literally everything else you just listed here, as it is pointless, because if you can't prove that the Macbook is tougher than the elitebook, then it isn't better "in every way," which is what you claimed.

You can keep trying to shift the subject, and I'll just keep bringing it right back to durability until you either prove that macs are more durable than elitebooks, or cede the argument that macs are "better in every way."

If you want a tough laptop, get a Panasonic Toughbook. Are you in the army or something?

Also what the fuck are you doing with your laptop that requires you to drop it? Are you furiously masturbating to trap porn and then slamming your dick with the clamshell?

I've been using Macs since the late 90s and what I'm typing from right now is probably my 15th Apple laptop and I've never had it bend or anything. I take care of things I own, unlike poojets who can't even use toilets.

Like I said, just because a computer is better in an all-around sense, doesn't mean that it is better "in every way."

>Panasonic Toughbook
That doesn't sound like it's made by Apple. I thought Apple was superior "in every way?"

>Also what the fuck are you doing with your laptop that requires you to drop it?
We aren't talking about needs. We are talking about how Apple is superior "in every way," to an Elitebook. I'm challenging that claim. I would also challenge the claim that a Ferrari is superior "in every way," to a Prius by asking about the MPG that the Ferrari has.

>I take care of things I own
Irrelevant to whether the things you own are "superior in every way," to the competition.

So, you are modifying your claim that Apple's products are superior "in every way," then?

If not, you need to prove that Apple's computers are tougher, and provide sources for said claims.

Also, have you ever responded to me with anything higher than "responding to tone," on the argument pyramid? Because you seem to be having some difficulty backing off of the claim that Apple computers are "superior in every way," and resorting to trying to move goalposts, ad hominems, responding to tone, and name calling, as if those would actually win the argument and not make you look biased to the point of being unable to accept basic facts.

>You probably don't even know what that means, child.

I posted the argument pyramid. You attacked my characteristics by saying that I had no experience with women (as if that has anything to do with food prep times, even if your accusation was true). You also used name-calling, by calling me an autist.

Funny how neither of those things proves the existence of a 4 Star Michelin restaurant that gets prepared food in the hands of customers as quickly as McDonalds, or that Macs are the most durable computers on the market.

I used to be a huge macfaggot myself used it since powerpc. They sure do make pretty products but they just aren't useful in any kind of power user application.

Been an apple hater like forever (not an actual hater, i'd just be into the "apple is gay lol" bandwagon) but holy shit, installed hackintosh for the first time a month ago on my PC, just because i was curious and this shit is fucking beautiful, even tho system is kinda bloated it's fast as fuck, font rendering doesn't rape my eyes like loonix/windows and programs do feel optimized.
I still think Macs are overpriced and i don't see myself getting a "real mac" anytime soon, but damn, this shit do feels like "that" i've always wanted.
My next computer is gonna be specially built for Hackintosh.
That said, any recommended software? so far i've installed Homebrew, IINA, Xcode, Sublime Text, Opera and iWorks (how come people says MS Office is the best suite? Keynote is FAR better than PowerPoint, Numbers does the job done and isn't a fucking mess like Excel and Pages i haven't had the time to try, and all of it for fucking free)

Yes, what makes Macs magical are the hardware/software combo and how they talk to each other.

You can't have that anywhere else, including Wangblows and Gaydroid.

As far as Macs being overpriced, they are truly not.

Try building an iMac Pro with the same parts— the HP/Dell workstations come out to be more expensive.

Let's focus on Dell for a second. Not even all of Dell, just their Inspiron laptops. There are 256 models. You've owned all 256 Inspiron laptops? That's just one brand. There's also Adamo, Precision Mobile Workstations XPS, Alienware, Legacy Systems, Studio, Chromebook, Latitude, and Vostro, each of which have dozens, if not hundreds, of models.

That's JUST Dell Laptops. Not Dell Desktops or tablets or anything else.

Despite having an 2.3ghz i7, 8gb ram, and an SSD it still gets hot constantly when doing the lightest of tasks, even browsing. It also has a shit battery life despite minimizing battery use.

Last time I cleaned up his PC, I literally watched the entire series of the original Berserk anime while waiting for certain shit to finish on the Windows XP Media Center edition HP tower from like 2006. I still have no fucking clue how the dude managed to break the SATA cable connecting his HDD. He never opens the thing, and he never moved it.

I have never used a Windows laptop that didn't start crashing twice a day one year after purchase. Maybe it's because of my poor choice of Windows laptops or maybe it's because Windows sucks. I don't know, but either way I'm thinking of getting a Mac.
Is the 'Mac stability' meme true or do all computers just suck ass no matter how much you pay for them?

Not really, no. I asked you to list all the OS's that you accepted fell under "mainstream." Why is this such a difficult question to answer.

Looking at your answer, there is only one OS that would qualify as a mainstream OS. If Mac OS is the only OS that is "mainstream," in your mind, then yeah, it's the best mainstream OS. But then, it's also the worst mainstream OS.

Oh, no, the Stable Mac meme is 100% true. Windows isn't optimized for shit; it's designed to run on as many devices as possible. So basically Windows machines need goliath specs just to barely function, which is why Windows often crashes a shitload after a few updates.
This is where macOS has the advantage. macOS is optimized only to run on macbooks, so the end result is much smoother by comparison. The only problem is that this gives Apple way too much control over their own devices, but god damn it's smooth as fuck
>>
>>61897885
>Why is this such a difficult question to answer.

I just literally answered your questions 3-4 times.

A mainstream OS is when it supports the following applications and more:

>>Adobe, Avid, Cubase, Davinci Resolve, Cinema 4D, Maya, ZBrush, Logic Pro, Final Cut Pro X, Ableton Live, Microsoft Office....

Oh and by the way, looking at this list, macOS supports all of these applications. So does Wangblows.

Guess which OS doesn't support ANY of these? Oh that's right, Loonix and your gay "distros".

Android (who the fuck cares)

I barely give a shit about /g/ let alone your dumb fucking pedantic ass.

I clearly stated multiple times that these mainstream applications are not supported in Loonix and will never be because it has a 2% marketshare and is irrelevant.

So the only truly mainstream desktop operating systems are macOS and Wangblows.

>inb4 hurr durr which verzionzzzzz bro????

Does it matter?

What are you disagreeing about?

You asked which OS is mainstream and I stated which one is mainstream. Wangdows and macOS.

Now you're being a retard and splitting hairs about versions.

I completely hate Wangdows so I will stick to macOS, thanks.

Although I do agree Win7 is probably Microshits best OS, although it's still an ugly piece of fisher price shit and outdated by todays standards.

Also I don't give a shit about Gaydroid.

This is just silly. Yes, I've "joined the future" and have a motherboard with USB-C.

That's like saying some water filtration center out there uses an Amiga Workbench or something so it must be good.

Fucking retard.

>What's funny is you can buy a used MacBook from a few years ago and it will be miles better than whatever you have right now.
A Sony Vaio with 16GB of RAM, an intel i7, and a 500GB SSD, which was purchased for 80 bucks, and completely renovated (including new motherboard and sound card for 160, totalling 240 dollars?

Consider me intrigued. No interest in MacOS, but if you can get me better specs on a Mac on ebay for the same price or lower, then I'd buy one and install Mint on it.

Do you think that you're almost 40 when you hit 19 years old, too?

Everything?

>>61898628
It already went away. Windows 7 is not included by any OEM. You can buy keys at some places, but who gives a rats ass?

>>61898644
You have to go back to India, Rakeesh. This is a white man's country.

Yeah, because it was overpriced when it was new. I didn't pay new prices.

Yeah maybe get a job I suppose?

Something that's higher class than working at McDonalds, perhaps?

>Can't afford things
Where did I say that?

I have a job. 3rd shift at a power plant. 46.50/hr. With a rent that's only 400/month, I could afford a Mac if I wanted one. But why would I pay for a Mac when I would just be stuck with the components inside of it and install Linux Mint on it anyways?

>>61898691
No one said that.

You're getting desperate.

Work on that anger, anon.

I can't help you if you can't see the light.

Macs are still superior whether you like it or not. Your opinion doesn't really matter, anyway.
