gonna be getting the a new one when they come out because of >>55092283
currently having to use an old shitty samsung laptop and it's awful, nothing compares to macbooks, they are great laptops
>>55092275
Fonts look fine on my machine, Never had any problems with font rendering in Ubuntu.

>Was going to buy a 2016 MBP
>thought it'd be out by march-april or so so held off buying a new lappy even though my old surface pro is a hot piece of garbage
>new MBPs still not even announced and this piece of shit just keeps getting worse and worse
>feel like it's too late to get a 2015 MBP now since surely the 2016 models are just around the corner
>>55092479
post the price you paid then
and desu, that was one of the laptops i was considering instead of getting a macbook
in fact i bought it, but it came with a 1366x786 resolution instead of 1080p which was advertised so i sent it back and was fed up so i got a macbook instead, which i don't regret
although that's the retailers fault
>>55091806
>>tfw you bought a 2015 facebook machine
fify
>>55092049
Fuck off tripcoder
>>55092504
I paid 1000 in us dollars
Higher than US price but that goes for all outsourced tech in my country so mac has a higher price too.
>>55092546
i'm from the uk and paid about £800 for it i think
which is the same as a 13 inch macbook pro retina with the student discount
>>55092504
>1366x768
Also that's unlucky, man
I bought this one especially for its 1080p screen
>>55092083
>i5
Good maymay
>>55092555
indeed, was difficult to find anywhere else stocking it in the uk so i just went with the macbook instead
>>55092554
but, this laptop is 15.6
compare it to 15.6 macbooks
1/3 price
>>55092484
get a surface book
>>55092572
fair point
>>55092479
>Comparing a heavier, thicker laptop to an ultra portable
Not shit the price/performance is better. You have to compare Macs to their direct PC equivalents.
>>55092601
Are you a manlet by any chance?
I carry this laptop around all day and it's literally the weight of a pack of cotton
And why would you care about thickness?
>tfw received a maxed out late 2013 rMBP as a gift
>tfw can hate on poorfags for not owning a macbook while being a worthless NEET
>>55092633
Now you're moving the goalposts. Thinner and lighter Windows laptops also have a worse price/performance than your laptop. You made a shit comparison in the first place.
>>55092479
>Asus N550JK
>1080p
it's a good value but no macbook, and this is coming from a thinkpad user
>>55092633
>Are you a manlet by any chance?
Yes
>>55092655
I'm sorry I should have said that things I care about when I am looking for a laptop is:
Price, performance, heat, build quality, bios fuck-up support and esp. screen quality
Rest is useless gimmicky marketing bullshit to make you pay more imo
>>55092668
Ofcourse it's not a macbook, but it gets the same job done for less than half the price of one, which is the most important part if you're a student
>>55092686
then pay the price and get a mac little man :^)
