Ok /g/uys I'm about to pull the trigger on pic related. How bad is my buyers remorse going to be?

that's not a macbook.

About 80%, same as anything else that people "pull the trigger" on. Feeling hesitant about a purchase is nature's way of telling you that you expect too much of it.

>>54728114

that's not the Y700 with 4k screen and 960M

They didn't give it Thunderbolt or USB-c.

Don't want a MacBook

Sounds like sound advice
>>54728232
Not going to have it on there long
>>54728245
Actually thought the keyboard was pretty fucking sexy
>>
>>54728543
How much are you paying for this shit?
>>
>>54728561
Actually charging it to my expense account at work so not too worried about the price. I'm looking at it for 1250
>>
>>54728114
I will NEVER understand why people like ThinkPads. How do you handle this non-standard keyboard layout in real life? I would go crazy with that switched Fn-Ctrl layout.

Also
>no numpad
into the trash
>>
>>54728604
That's actually a really minor issue. Past a day of adjusting for i3 commands and I'm golden
>>
>>54728262

kisses to you too friend!
>>
>>54728644
>That's actually a really minor issue
I still have my tower with a normal keyboard. Having to switch back and forth would drive me crazy.

WHY change the keyboard layout?
WHY not just keep it nice and standard? Do they want me to worry about EVERYTHING on this planet? There was no need to "fix" it on ThinkPads, so W H Y?
>>
>>54728114
Wait for Polaris

you can actually swap their functions in BIOS
if it really bothers you
>>
>>54728603
why not get a real laptop, senpai?

Thanks, ThinkPad

Just go on ebay and get an alienware

Won't be what I do because something something 12yo gaymer
>>
>>54728114
I think it looks sweet op. Do you need the stylus?
>>

>Because I want the tablet functionality
I made the same mistake when I bought a Thinkpad Yoga years ago.

Used the tablet functionality for a few weeks, then installed funtoo and never used it again.
>>
>>54729221
My first answer is nah not really but then that's what I thought about the stylus with my note 4 and I use that little fucker all the time so who knows!
>>
>>54728678

It can be switched with a BIOS mod in older thinkpads or a remapping program inside your OS. Getting rid of the top row of extra function keys is a bigger offense.

OP is a moron, the thinkpad maymay only applies to older, used thinkpads. Buying a Thinkpad brand new is no better than buying a Mac new.
>>
>>54729328

This is a common experience with all touchscreen computers. Unless you are a drawfag, you'll find yourself ignoring the touchscreen after 2-3 weeks.
>>
>>54728114
That red shit in the middle of the keyboard is really ugly. Is there any way to remove it?
>>
>>54729761
you mean the trackpoint?
no.
>>
What do you need it for? I love my T420's. sure that laptop may have decent specs but eh. not a true thinkpad. price and specs?
>>
>>54728114

chink cucked surface
lenovo is shit
>>
>>54728114

X1 carbon/ yoga?
I'm trying to toss up betwen a x1c yoga or a 460 atm

Looks like shit.
>>
if you want a light tablet like device you may as well buy a surface instead of a chinkpad. the new chinkpads are shit even compared to the competition and not IBM thinkpads.
>>
>>>54728232
>Not going to have it on there long

If you find a way to run linux on that thing AND get all the sensors working, please tell me.
I have the old helix and it's shit with linux
