>He doesn't own a desktop Correct >He'll never know the true power potential of a desktop There are plenty of powerful laptops >He'll never be able to play any game or graphically design Not all games and programs require a supercomputer you know >He'll never be at healthy temperatures 95degrees c is well within safe limits >He'll never know the feeling of accomplishment after building his own PC I also don't play with LEGOs anymore >He'll never watch little Chinese girl cartoons on a large monitor 17/18" is large enough >He'll never know the comfiness of typing on a dedicated mechanical keyboard You can get a laptop with a mechanical keyboard >He'll never have more than 2 USB ports with a dock my X200 currently have 6 USB2.0 ports and 2 3.0 >He'll never be able to swap hardware in a flash, and upgrade when he wants you can do that on many laptops like thinkpads
William Green
But I have a desktop AND a laptop (which is small and lightweight to be taken to uni)
Camden Brown
>LEGOs >s
REEEEEEEE
James Clark
I have fell for the desktop meme while I don't play games. My back hurts. I don't need that much power processing. Basically a ThinkPad + docking station / monitor plugged in + mouse + keyboard. Would suit me better
>tfw too autistic for sell it
Jackson Turner
>laptop with mechanical keyboard Yea, If you but that £3500 msi monstrosity but then you may as well have gotten a desktop for all the portability it has.
Alexander Sanders
>not building a desktop and purchasing a laptop
Nicholas Hill
>He doesn't own a desktop No I dont >He'll never know the true power potential of a desktop What potential? >He'll never be able to play any game or graphically design There are enough great games that my laptop can run that I could spend my whole life playing them and still not run out. Also I do CAD on my laptop and it works just fine. Industry is moving in the direction of remote processor farms anyway. >He'll never be at healthy temperatures If you dont buy chink consumer shit your temperatures are absolutely fine >He'll never know the feeling of accomplishment after building his own PC I've built many pcs for friends/relatives. It is an accomplisment if youre an autist I guess. >He'll never watch little Chinese girl cartoons on a large monitor My laptop can connect to TVs. I don't watch malaysian cooking shows though. >He'll never know the comfiness of typing on a dedicated mechanical keyboard Implying you cant connect mechanical keyboard to a laptop. >He'll never have more than 2 USB ports Again enjoy your chink consumer shit. >He'll never be able to swap hardware in a flash, and upgrade when he wants Enjoy buying new hardware every year because muh cutting edge 5% performance gain in a specific benchmark. My hardware is good enough for my needs.
Alexander Murphy
There are no ThinkPad desktops. Also: >W700 >5 USB ports >DL-DVI+DisplayPort
Why would I need more than this?
Adam Perry
>powerful laptops MEEEEEEEEEEEEMESSSS Even the most powerful laptop you'll be paying twice as much as a desktop for the same performance. Not to mention laptop cooling and power efficiency is shit >not all games require a supercomputer you know For them to look good it does >95°C kek
Matthew Carter
>he fell for the Thinkpad meme
Andrew Barnes
Because it's light, making it easier to throw off tall buildings
Liam Green
Basically the only reason for a desktop is muh gaymes
Jason Cruz
>Why own a laptop?
Do you unironically believe that there are people who don't have both?
Julian Cook
>>He'll never be able to play any game or graphically design He'll never have more than 2 USB ports >>He'll never be able to swap hardware in a flash, and upgrade when he wants
these don't apply to ThinkPads
Landon Diaz
>he's never used more than one QHD display for video/image editing and multi-tasking >he doesn't know about the low rendering times that comes with a 6-8 core processor >he will never know
Caleb Myers
You know like half the shit you listed doesn't even require a desktop right? You can plug monitors and keyboards into a laptop. They also have these things called USB hubs. >implying I don't own a laptop and desktop
Charles Lewis
>Not all games and programs require a supercomputer you know Nice strawman. How many laptops can run games at 1440p144FPS with GSync/Freesync?
Ayden Edwards
Why not both?
James Green
>own pic related >own chinkpad feels good man
Anthony King
Laptops are for niggers, when I need portability, I strap my desktop to my back and use my oculus rift to see shit
I also use 20 meter extensions for the power supply, only autists use that gay silicon clam you call laptops
Jack Collins
I guess I did, proud owner of an X200 Tablet, T400 and W700. They were dirt cheap tho.
Cooper Evans
Are you a poor uni student?
Daniel Rodriguez
I guess I am, but I also have a desktop: i7-4770k watercooled 32GB RAM 960GB SSD 2x3TB HDD Radeon HD 7990 42" 4K IPS screen
It is soon to be 3 years old, so nothing special. Gonna upgrade next year.
