Supermicro gear is absolutely god-tier. Too bad it's almost all server stuff, which makes it ridiculously expensive.

Also, you can still get really small laptops that are between the size of a 7" tablet and a 10" tablet like pic related, though the specs are somewhat dated and to my knowledge you can't run any Linux distros on them (otherwise I'd be really tempted to own one).

Having had to use an iMac G3 for a few years, I don't think they're cute anymore. They're terrible.
>>
>>52489987
Well, if you had to actually USE one of the fucking things, as a main machine at that, I feel your pain.
I've got a wall of about 12 of the things, wanted to stream video to them as a grid.
Oh boy.
Saw someone throwing 12 of them out, as broken, $5 each. Thought I'd get a fair few fucked ones so I wouldn't feel bad gutting them and throwing something more powerful in, like a quarter of a raspberry pi.
Turns out every fucking one worked.
Eventually found a dead one, now I'm looking for a good LCD panel to use.

I think the best thing I did with that iMac is trade it against a powermac G3 with my brother after convincing him he didn't need it.

Still the same speed, way more RAM and HDD space. Swapped it for a G4 later on when I managed to get one free. This was around 2004-2007.

Because not everyone is a sissy white boy like you who feels the need to flaunt his sissyness in front of everybody and since being a sissy gay faggot like you isn't socially acceptable and having an anime themed laptop or whatever instead of skulls and guns and shit will make people think you're a sissy white boy faggot ass bitch.

So you should probably move to Japan and have cute technology being catered to you, since you're that much of a faggot and japs are pretty emasculated, so there's plenty of 'cute' technology for you to cocksuck over.

>a bit more interesting than a cube, fridge or brick if you ask me
You bought into the marketing.

The marketing that targets the 16-year old gaymers who want a l33t gayming peecee.
The marketing that likes the edges, the grittiness, the unpure.
The marketing that wastes space, time and brain cells.

Yes, I am puritanical. So should you be, as well as the rest of /g/. Waste not, want not.
It's what makes the difference between a "classy" car and the fast cars all the edgy teenagers want. Both are expensive, both will get you "cred" in your associated group, however nobody will take you seriously if you park a tuned Skyline GTR with body mods, decals and 2 meter tall spoilers.

Why exactly does the gamer demographic like their hardware to look like overdesigned space ships and futuristic tacticool garbage?
Because it looks like it came from a video game?
I'm starting to think it's a feedback loop where designers think this is appealing and then stupid gamer kids just buy it because they don't know any better.

Supermicro makes good stuff then?

Debating between trying to find a black motherboard from the regular companies or just get a really high end one and disregard the color.

>bb10 is an OS with real multitasking
>blackberry make the single best idea for an input ever: a keyboard you can accurately move shit around so you could have a pointer you can pres what you need to, he'll you can even do complex gestures
>doesn't put a pointer in any device and makes the screen have all the few complex gestures
>make sure it's not easy to change between screens you can see are still working and then make it impossible to have actual screens rather than miniature bullshit
It's like BlackBerry wants to make shit be only a quarter as good as it could be.
