Why do normalfags dislike thinkpads?
>>
normalfags have jobs and can thus afford quality products
>>
>>62322669
they don't
>>
Normalfags typically don't have opinions on other people's computers.

>>62322669
why are /g/ such pedophiles

doesn't look expensive

go back to English class, pajeet

Normal people don't give a shit about what kind of computer they use. Hipsters and faggots need to follow trends and treat computers like fashion.

Because I'm not autistic

Personally, I've never understood /g/'s obsession with the damn things.

I mean, they get the job done, but so does every other laptop I've ever used.

Because they aren't flashy and you can't exactly show off how "rich" you are with them
>>
>>62322669
Nope, that is a /g/ meme. Every normal person I have run into who has seen a Thinkpad has thought they were nice looking.

Thinkpads are flashy in the sense of having a vague cyberpunk/hacker association with them.

Anyone who knows a little about computers would also know if you had one of the newest Thinkpads that isn't a cheap computer.

>>62323716

As far as uni/college goes thinkpads and macs are regarded as the go to devices. Dell or hp or chromebook... get laughed at

>Why do normalfags dislike thinkpads?
The main audience for ThinkPads and related laptops like Latitudes, Elitebooks, etc. are business people and power users. Hence they are priced accordingly.

Now, you can find old ones selling for much cheaper, but they don't know this (else they wouldn't be 'normalfags' or 'normies') and I doubt many would like the idea of buying used stuff.

Additionally, there is the marketing, which is why so many go out and buy Apple's offering, despite being overpriced garbage.

>>62323567
They are nice. They have better keyboard than any other laptop I have used and are the only laptops that did trackpoint right.
Sadly new thinkpads are shit and old ones are old.
>>
>one of the most well known laptop brands universally held in high regard
>ONLY 1337 EBYC /G/ENTOOMAN KNOW ABOUT LE BASED SINKPAD NORMIES OUT ROOO
Why are autistic children so stupid?
>>
thinkpads have more or less kept the same general design language they've had since the 90s, so people look at them and think they look old.

this shouldn't require any deep thought. even autistic people like OP should have been able to work this out on their own.
>>
>>62324270
There's literally nothing wrong with new Thinkpads apart from WLAN/WWAN whitelists.

>>62322693
you mean, normalfags buy things they can't afford with credit
>>
>>62322669
Maybe because they're manufactured by one of the most blatantly consumer-hostile companies on the planet? How can we be sure there's no firmware level keylogging going on, given Lenovo's history?
>>
That's a loaded question. Normalfags care that their computer works and runs the programs they want to use. The Macfags who are gonna make fun of you for using a Thinkpad aren't "normal", they're fucking obsessive nerds just like you.
>>
>>62325659
Who the fuck cares if they watch anime? Its not like they sucked some 8 year olds cock and posted it.
>>
>>62322669
As far as I know most people here grew up with their school having thinkpads for the students to use.
Makes sense because they are extremely durable and students are savages.
However, the schools always used the cheapest ones available, lagging a ton and restricting the user as much as possible.
Most people I know immediately think of it as "crappy school laptop" and disregard it.
