Do (You) own a Thinkpad?

[Bobby Baccalà]

i mean i only really had 3 laptops fail on me in my lifetime
to be fair i tend to travel around a lot and i used to carry my laptops with me so maybe its that

3 is a worrying number

 

[supersage]

I had 0 lol

lucky
but i always used beater pcs so its not that big of an issue cause i usually just sold them for parts after

The only real advantage (to me) are the dedicated trackpad buttons on the bottom of the upper chassis but even then some older high-end tier models have those as well. P50, 51, 52, 53 to name a few. Actually those might be the only ones. Not sure.

Why settle with a P5x? arent the P17 fat ass "laptops" (luggables) getting cheap now

The newer models are... suboptimal to me. The older workstations just look (not feel, I've never used one of them before) more "rugged", they look like proper ThinkPads, machines that live up to the family name. Powerful too. Even the P50 (doesn't officially support W11 because it uses Skylake) is still very usable nowadays, much more so than lower-grade new laptops. But that's just me talking.

New = bad

This but genuinely because Lenovo was considering removing the trackpoint a little while ago

thinkpad mini 10, exclusive to australia's education sector. it's based on the x100e something but that wasnt cheap enough i guess

I changed the cmos battery on my x61s today. It uses cr 2025 but I only had cr 2032 at home so I had to tinker for a bit. It is very close to shorting out and frying the whole laptop and a new one costs over $4.

They should get rid of the trackpad instead, the ultranav shit makes them too easy to use for black people

buying an x201 because it was the last model to come configurable without an ultranav

Twisting my words. You are an evil man, Mr. Hartmann.
but yes I do agree you should buy the x230 in any other instance
