Good, new innovations for other laptop makers to copy. Without Apple we'll still be having DVD-ROM drives and hard disks.
This thread is about the appreciation of watches, as well as the micro-engineering and materials engineering that is required to make a fine watch.

If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W/P SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™
Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", ultraportable

Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap.
>Excellent keyboards - tactile feel and quiet.
>Great durability: chassis uses a magnesium rollcage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels.
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing in the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

>I'm sure it'll be fine. I don't think a replacement heatsink is that expensive so look in to it.
yeah, thanks. I just need it to work the next couple of days, after that I'll have time to change it
X220t owners: Is it worth it to install a Linux distro on my X220t? I mostly just use it for art programs.
W530 has absolutely no heat issues.

Asking "Hey guys, what's your opinion on x?" is frowned upon.
Wireless is frowned upon.
Headset requests are frowned upon.
Noise isolation ≠Noise cancellation
If you dislike a headphone suggestion, try giving a better suggestion to whomever asked instead of going "hurr, brand x sucks"

Sorry kiddo but "analytical" isn't a buzzword.
Why don't you get some fashionable and good looking headphones?
>>54917729
But is is true. Akg posters are usually the most vocal, and the most active in the threads. That is why I made the mistake of ordering some, and they do it for free. i don't see how that is not a shill, same with grados 4 years ago.
Are SSDs a meme or is faster boot time worth it? Also, ideal amount of space on one?
If you're just getting it for boot times you're retarded and the ideal space is get a fucking HDD you mongoloid.
My rig boots slower with a 950 Pro than it did with a cheap ssd lol
Only morons care about boot time anyway; how often do you really boot?
I bought a 1TB SSD last year, it's the best thing I've bought in a long time.

Hey this is the tech support board right?
Why is it that my skype call quality goes to shit whenever I'm loading a youtube video. I even tried it on discord and the same thing happened. Call is fine, everything's good - load a youtube video and it goes to shit.
No internet problems other than that - I have fibre so everything should be good and was good until a couple of months ago when this started.
pls halp

Are you not aware that nvidia gimps last gen cards with new drivers so you could buy new gen cards? How have these jerks not gotten sued yet?

When I upgrade next year in going full on AMD. I'd rather fall for a meme then let these Jews get another penny from me.
So I've switched from Dolphin to Firefox on my Android and I was wondering whether I should switch from Chrome to Firefox on my PC. I like Chrome's addons, but I need need Java in my Browser. On the other hand I hate howe Firefox displays google images. So what are the pros and cons that I don't know about? Also general web browser thread.

Best bitcoin wallet?

Isn't bitcoin tech though?

the /g/ approved cryptocoin is dogecoin you dumb fuck
what if all pc's ever made only perform to their maximum potential if you have an exact, uncommon amount of ram installed, like 21gb for example
like, the amount of ram being some kind of key, with any other amount computors would only perform at 10% or so
and people in the know like the nwo and rothshield can play the latest games in 8k at 240fps, laughing at us for buying expensive new components every year
