Pick the best looking one.
>>51773237
Thinkpad
>>51774517
fuck off you fucking faggot
>>51773237
Something really slim where nothing can break off and a decent quad core without a dedicated GPU

OP post a pic of the site you would order from and this thread would be much more helpful

If you're ever thinking of getting something like a chromebook, he's right. Might as well get a thinkpad.
>>51774583
It has to be from http://www.amazon.com/
>>51774583
He said Amazon.
>>51774608
You can't use a fucking chromebook for any STEM degree, and Thinkpads are fucking garbage.
>>51774617
It could be Amazon.co.uk, .com, .de, .fr ...
Post in the thinkpad general. For 500 you can get a monster of a thinkpad.

>4+ years of university(engineering) for $500 or under via Amazon?
You're probably going to shell out more than that for a single book for one of your classes.
Jesus, you want a laptop for four years for $500? And you think it will be sufficient for engineering? I hope you intend to do nothing but edit the occasional Word document, because you're sure as shit not doing any engineering on that.

>thinkpads are garbage
let me guess, your next post is going to suggest an iBad
>>51774677
I think you're overestimating what is required for professional engineering software, at least for what sort of work college students will be up to.
>>51774692
no as they are also garbage
>>51774677
Anything above a **20 series thinkpad will handle CAD effortlessly, and a t420 can be had for less than 200 in great condition.
Buy a used thinkpad senpai

Anon, just post in the thinkpad general. For 500 dollars you can get an absurdly powerful thinkpad that will last 6-8 years. You could honestly readjust your budget to around 250 dollars and still fit your criteria.
>>51774970
These poopad faggots just don't stop, don't they?
>>51774876

>>51774970
Find better unrefurbished ones on amazon, you lazy pieces of worthless human resource
>>51775092
Stop shilling your fucking garbage.
>>51775134
What benefit is there to shill for used computers? You're a moron. We're just trying to help the guy find the best value computer that meets his criteria. Used business class computers are the best value. Elitebooks are good too, but I don't have any experience with those.
>>51774772
He's right you know.
>>51775421
it's well known that there are refurbishers that shill on /g/. they talk about it all of the time on /tpg/ you fucking faggot. fuck off.
>>51775520
How retarded are you? Do you think that people selling used thinkpads would pay people to post on 4chan in the off chance that they will randomly buy a thinkpad from them. A purchase thwt would net them 50 dollqrs at most.
>>51775617
they post the links you dumb faggot. /g/ is a huge board.
>>51775744
No they dont.
>>51774657
Rdp chromebook is much worth.
>>51775784
>nuh uh!
kill yourself
>>51776136
Go look at the thread and find an example. I can't prove a negative.
>>51776173
lurk moar
>>51776223
I lurk the tkpg threads all the time. Theres 200 posts in the current thread and there are a few threads still in the catalog. Go find examples, it should be easy if shilling is as pervasive as you say.
