I don't need that shit to be productive. I need that shit to play vidya gaems and shitpost in guts threads

jokes on you, I use a shitty Thinkpad for 350€
11/10 shitpost but I agree with the sentiment.
I do all my C and C++ programming on a Thinkpad x140e. It has an 11.6 inch screen, an AMD A4-5000 chipset and 4 gigs if RAM (though I did upgrade it to 8 gigs). I run xubuntu and do the majority of my programming in Sublime Text.
