X1 Carbon and X201

I got the X201 just for a cheap travel and backup laptop and actually like the ergonomics on it more than the X1 Carbon now.

michael j fox, is that you?
>>
>>51709388
Well yeah, the X201 screen isn't near as good as the X1 Carbon's but it has a much nicer keyboard and the edge of the palmrest is nice and round whereas it's a sharp corner on the X1 Carbon that gives me wrist pain after a while.

I use a T420 I bought after letting the /tpg/ cult teach me its virtues. It's a decent laptop for the price. The keyboard is very, very good.

That said, I've been itching to try one of the older models with a 4:3 display, but I can't justify the purchase to myself when I already have this perfectly fine laptop with me.

early 2015 13in 8gb ram macbook air.

previously had a 2010 macbook pro, and before that a 2007 macbook pro.

i love the air. extremely light and fantastic battery. it might not be oversized resolution, but i don't notice pixels since i don't have my face right up to the screen.

Don't want to make my own thread so maybe you can help me pick out a laptop.

I want a i5 or i7
6-8 GB ram
SSD
Aluminum frame if possible
No Dell
portable

I do not need a graphics card.

I take my computer to school 4 days a week. I mostly use it for wordprocessing and surfing the web but also for non-intensive 3d cad cam imaging. Would like to spend about $500.

My family has kicked me out, I'm shit poor and I have been using a 11.6" Dell Chromebook since june as my main PC.

At first Chrome OS it was painfully limited, but at least I can install Ubuntu 15.04 with crouton and I have learnt to find alternatives of many windows programs. I can survive with this thing.

switching from xps 13 to t450s

i just needed more boring performance for the boring things i have to do with it

xps 13 is infinitely cooler for sure

>>51709304
A fucking thinkpad, was that a trick question?

x200 is my fap machine

light, can handle most videos, touch screen. Has a mechanical HDD which is annoying but I'm not putting a SSD in a $250 device

just wish I could upgrade the RAM to 8gb, 4gb is just pathetically slow

X220t. The keyboard and pen make it great for notes and drawing/art.
It's pretty good for $240.

>4gb slow

what the fuck kind of shitty botnet OS are you running? I'm using an X200 right now and I'm only using 520 MB.

Don't try to pretend like you need to run huge VMs or anything, you just called it a fap machine

I don't understand how you can have an HDD as a primary drive in a laptop, even cheap ones. An SSD is a must, otherwise it feels like youre using a pc from 1995.

Seriously, we literally have an entire thread dedicated to them.
>>
>>51712880
Then you have people complaining about how they're laptop is slower than all fuck, yet won't put and ssd in there for whatever fucking reason. I have a x220 with a shitty little pny ssd that cost like $70 at Best Buy, and it boots up windows 10 in like, less than 8 seconds.

Asus K501LX. i5-5300u, 8gb ram, 1tb hdd, 120gb ssd, nvidia 950m, decent 1080p display, nice sound, and spectacular battery life (8 hours of use in windows and ~4 in Debian without much config effort). Plus it was much cheaper than an XPS
