Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).
If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™
Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", lightweight

Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>They’re really cheap when you buy a used one.
>Keyboards feel excellent while typing (yes, even the newer ones).
>Great durability thanks to the inclusion of rollcages and use of glass fiber reinforced plastic for the chassis. The keyboard is splash proof and spilled liquids will drain out.
>Utilitarian design - e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking solutions that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for almost every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing on the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

Just get a right handed Razer Deathadder
I've only had two mice in the last 8 years. My first Razer deathadder was the guild wars edition from FOREVER AGO. It finally died last year, I bought the one in the picture as my new mouse. I just love the design and it feels larger/smoother in your hand than other mice.
It only have a total of 5 buttons (which for me is perfect) the side buttons are actually nice and easy to use not weird little buttons like in OPs picture.
Again Razer Deathadder and ones that look exactly like is are 11/10. I don't know about the other razer products but this mouse is FANTASTIC. (points to my pictures)

Is it really that comfy ? Steelseries Rival is bigger by a little bit, and I'd think that it would be a little more comfortable than DA, but everyone says how comfortable DA is. No one comments on Rival, ever

Daily reminder that saying Android is FOSS is meaningless.Freetards if you don't want to be ironic switch to Replicant or if you are a regular person throw away the lagdroid and get a real smartphone like iOS.

Be a good goy anon kun.
so, how do I hack?
You installed Kali as your main OS?
LOL... It does not have any useful tools for normal computing, it's going to be a pain in the neck after a while. You are supposed to have it on a USB and boot into it when you are going to do pentesting, that is what it's for.
My recommendation is to get a normal linux distro. Even if you want the tools from Kali on your main OS you can just install all the tools on it. Or boot to Kali on a USB when you want those tools.
Replace apt hosts with debian jessie and enjoy yours debian
>>51962642
It's just a Debian with Gnome 3 and a fuckton of pentensting bloat though.

Do eet.
That's a true laptop. Not some landwhale desktop imposter.
Any opinions on Lenovo "Thinkpad Edge" E50-80 ? Seems too good for the price
>i7 5500U
>16GB of RAM
>15.6 FHD (maybe an IPS, don't know, doesn't say right now)
>R5 M330 2GB GPU
>1TB 5400rpm HDD
>630 euros (keep in mind prices aren't very good where I live)
It just seems so much better than anything else at the same or even higher price range, something must be horribly wrong with it
Does this board ever discuss actual technology ffs
GoPro? Why should I buy one? Which one? Buy a "real" camera insted?
Preis = Price, Leistung = performance
>>51962549
Normal people realize they need something to do something and then look for the product that best suits them.
You however seem to have found a random product and are asking yourself if you need it for something.
>>51962574
nein what?
Looking for the most affordable power supply for a new gaming rig build, is this any good? I usually buy corsair things.
yes, it's epic
>>51962481
>Corsair
>affordable
This corsair CPU is a rebranded CWT PSU. CWT makes decent PSUs. It's good enough.
Corsair just loves to overprice their rebrands though.
