good as in funny when you convince someone to get one. they arent gods. inspiron is straight garbage.
>>55081025
I have a T530, and I agree with this.
Especially now that they're owned by Lenovo.

Neck yourself
i dunno how u faggots cope with that gay red mouse thingy on the thinkpad. i remember back in 2002 or whatever i had a laptop with one of those things and it burned the tips of my fingers when i used it, also its impossible to play runescape with that shit

>10-12 hours is bad battery life
Not like you need it if you never leave the house anyway.
>>55081052
meme as fuck and I love it
>>55081157
yeah i kinda want one, they are hard to find in good clean condition though

The rubber nubs on the side to hold the screen steady are really badly designed (or else just really poorly made) because they break off all the time. Mine has one missing and the other one the plastic bit that holds it in has chipped off so who knows when it'll fall off.
If it wasn't for the kinda crummy accuracy around the edges it'd be a god tier laptop.
>>55081136
>10 -12 hours
falling for M$ meme marketing
good luck getting that unless you are using the i3 on the lowest brightness with setting wifi and bluetooth turned off and not running anything but solitaire
and you will still be lucky to get 6 hours

My t530 has this weird electric pulse sound that comes from it's screen.

Actually, Ms actually took a page from Apple's book and are actually generous about their battery times. I get 11 hours easily on mine with 33% brightness, Skylake is just really easy on the battery.
Dell on the other hand is a mass bullshitter, 12 hours advertised on the XPS 13 yet it barely lasts 7.

Is the backlight in that screen led? If not the buzzing noise is most likely the inverter powering the fluorescent backlight
>>55081025
This. Holy fuck.
So what exactly does "king" mean in this instance, anyway?
Is it the meme laptop that's the MOST memey? Or is it the meme laptop that's the least gimmicky and stupid?
>>55081105
actually never played skyrim. I just bought a zenbook. plenty happy with it.
>>55081039
that's me right now
The screen fell off last week and is hanging on by one hinge and the lcd is hanging out
Thinkpad G40, it's two memes in one.
Lads, I unfortunately bought a Macbook air for college roughly 10 months ago. I switched major and would like to go to a windows or linux based computer for the programming classes I'll be taking next semester. Whats a simple/cheap/effective laptop I could get for programming and word processing.

thanks doc
>>55081025
To be fair, Thinkpads used to be great. Lenovo basically killed them.
>>55081052
This or the non tablet X220
I got my meme this morning, feels good man
>>55083254
Or just use Bootcamp?
>>55083262
Thanks mate, I'll look into it
>>55083347
I could, but I could also probably sell my Macbook for like $750 and buy, for example, a chromebook with linux for roughly $200 and have $550 to spare. Why should I keep it if I have no use for it? (Serious question, I don't want to sell but it seems logical).

X220 / T420
>>55084112
My bad, wrong pic. But the x230/t430 are good too if you don't mind the inferior keyboard and are willing to invest a bit more
>>55082590
You have to set the resolution to 1920x1080 to get good battery life with the xps 13
>>55081034
still a meme
doesn't necessarily mean "bad"
jesus christ you fucks have all types of conflicting definitions for one word
>>55084112
Me on the right
>>55084154
That is the 1080p version, the 3200x version gets 5.5 hours for web browsing tests and 6 hours for 1080p video playback (big buck bunny h.264).

Is there a king? They're all equally kingly. The only good thing you can tell me about a laptop is how little you spent on it. Buy a Chromebook if you absolutely need to work mobile. You will come to regret every dollar you spend on a laptop.
>>55083254
You can program just fine on a MacBook air. I don't have one, I'm a Windows boy myself, but a bunch of my dev friends use Macs and I see a couple MacBook airs
>>55081108
