Seriously, what are the best alternatives to a Macbook Pro?
Obviously there's the Dell XPS, but what else? And please don't say a second hand ThinkPad because I want my own computer, not a hand-me-down.
Surfacebook Pro
Dell has XPS
Microsoft has Surface
Google has Pixel
ASUS has ZenBook
You probably can't expect anything decent from the other manufacturers like HP

A brand new Thinkpad.
I'm going to buy the T460p when it comes out.
Asus Zenbook Pro UX501
macbook air
NEC/Lenovo LaVie (Z?), stupid light, very sexy looking

Lenovo has a touch model as well, looks like it does that retarded Yoga flip around shit though

Those look like crap.
Chrome book, swap in a bigger ssd, install gentoo

is this like how blue led's make my videos play faster? do pretty laptops make your work on the road more productive?

Macbook Air

Looks like shit and probably has nonexistent Linux support.

I don't mind ugly.
But I do mind poor quality plastic and sloppy build.
the T450s is nearly identical except it trades the touchpad and meme display for a better keyboard and a trackpoint.

Also the keyboard must be hell to type on.
Acer Chromebook 11, the thing is simply beautiful, white and all that

Are you a moron?

Did you suffer as a child, having all your stuff handed down to you from onee-san? If you want to suffer from the depreciation of a new system and have the money to do it continually, be my guest. But if you're asking for "best alternatives", well...

This, desu senpai. I got an acer c720 and threw some coreboot on that bad mammajamma. Excellent machine.
Honestly do what I did, macbook pro. Install Windows. I've always developed on windows, the build/battery is awesome and price isn't a big a deal to me.

Actually, yes. When I'm using technology I actually like and enjoy, I tend to enjoy the things I'm doing with it too.
Using a half-assed product doesn't make you better at getting the job done.
HP Spectre X360
>>51780316
meh I'm betting this is overpriced as it is marketed as a 'business ultrabook' and has the tablet feature.
That kind of stuff inflates prices to no extent.
>>51780661
I have been looking at laptops and the spectre has an i7 and is convertable but is cheaper than the the dell xps
