Lenovo Y50-70
For everything.

Lenovo ideapad 305 - it was sexy, I currently use it for everything that isn't programming. It's Win10 dual-booting ubuntu

Some macbook - work laptop, El Capitan OS. I currently use it for everything related to programming

Dell XPS 15Z

Dell Precision M6600 - ESXi
Dell Precision M4800 - Main system
Dell Latitude E7250 - Work laptop
Macbook Pro 13" 2011 - shitpost here

Also I use a Dell Latitude and HP EliteBook for work but I would only recommend the HP.

aw shit, it's a rMBP, 15-inch. I know nothing about macs, but I was wondering why it was so sexy

Im thinking about getting this one, how good is it for college computer science work?

Dell Inspiron 3420

I use it for everything, porn, work, education, recreation, and porn again, the usual

Surface Pro 4
Web browsing
School work
Light photo/video editing
Emulators

Dell Chromebook 13

I use it for development, currently I have ubuntu running on it.

X250, work stuff.

I don't have a laptop because all I do is browse and type up documents.

Use a Pixel C. Waiting for the next iteration of the Surface Book.

That shit has build quality

Why would I buy a laptop if I already have a tablet?

T420, work, note taking, shit posting, photo editing

Sony Vaio S13
for everything

I have this Dell XPS 17 and want to get a Surface pro 4. Just that this laptop is kinda big and want to get something more dedicated for drawing/artwork.

Yoga pro 2 dual booting Deepin and Win 8.0

Dell 7559

I wanted a laptop that didnt cost much, could play games and atleast a 1080p screen.

Checked all the boxes outside of being 14 inches

God tier laptop, I won't be in the market for a new one for at least another couple years. Mainly use it for browsing the web and programming, some light gaming here and there

Dell chromebook 11.

Love it. Really solid build quality and silent fanless, great keyboard but shitty trackpad and screen. But I dock it and use a big 4:3 dell monitor and keyboard/mouse 90% of the time

>Asus ux303
Use it mainly for Web browsing, little bit of programming and uni shit - CAD work, heavy excel, matlab and maple, plus watching lectures

ThinkPad T420; primary, desktop replacement, used for media, games and some work. Has Nvidia card.

ThinkPad x1 hybrid; secondary pc and is the one that leaves the house. Same duties as t420 but used outside.

Hp Mini 110; emergency use and testing.

Holy shit read the sticky you fucking mongoloids

ThinkPad T420. I mainly use it for bedbrowsing and take it with me to work. Desktop for everything else.

no

This is more of a Sup Forums thread than 90% of the stuff shitting up the board right now
Also,
>massquoting

So anyone got a suggestion for a decent tablet ? 300-500$

>decent tablet
Yeah, a laptop

My old Toshiba satellite got bricked so I'm planning on buying a Dell inspiron 15 (7559) I'll probably upgrade the RAM to 16gb and add an ssd. I'll mostly be using it for structural analysis software, Matlab and vidya. Hope I'm not buying the wrong tool for the job. What do you think?

What is the cheapest laptop I can get with a 1080p IPS display?

Note: Acer Chromebook 14 is out since I can't seem to purchase it in my country.

Alienware 17 r3
Sits in my bed for Sup Forums shitposting before I go to bed.

I fucking love my Asus Nexus. Am currently using it on the shitter to type this comment

I dont know but it runs windows 10 and is fairly powerful
Just for wanking

There's nothing wrong with the t420 or the x1 hybrid. In fact, the x1 hybrid is one of my best purchases at 800 cad in 2012 and can still get 16 hours of usage in Android mode. That's with only the 3 cell battery, have yet to buy the battery slice.

The t420 is my next best purchase since I got my for 400 in 2012.

I would buy an alienware laptop but I'm not brave enough to be seen in public with such an ugly piece of hardware

Yeah even with the LEDs off you could pretty much tell it is what it is.

That said it literally never leaves my bed so it was a good purchase. Couldn't really find anything much better than it for the price and my local Best Buy had it in stock.

All new Lenovo X1 Yoga
>Business stuff of course
>I run several business's
>I'm very rich

MSI GP-70
(The Windows 7 model - I'm given to understand another iteration of it has 8 instead)

Purchased so I could finally play...well, any games. The laptop I had before it could handle basically nothing, and this one can play new shit even - though I might need to turn the graphics down a bit for it to be smooth. And then it does all my other computer stuff as well.

I would've gone for a desktop for gaming and kept the laptop for other shit, but I go over to people's houses frequently on my days off and need something portable.

y580

x200t
I write ebooks

Thinkpad T420, for being a faggot on the go, I guess. It's also covered in stickers but that's acceptable as I live on a liberal arts campus and everybody here is a fag.

x201 - for programming at college
Lenovo z40 - main computer, it sits on my desk connected to a 24" monitor
Eee PC - trying to figure out what I'm gonna do with it
Broken y510p - no one can fix this shit

x250

programming, uni work and various other shit

Toshiba chromebux 2. 1080p ips, running linux.
8/10 for 8 hour battery life on ubuntu.

ASUS G750. It's the 2014 model w/860M, i7 and 8 GB. It's outdated by current standards but it werks fine for me. It still runs games like Elite: Dangerous on max with no problem. Has god-like cooling for a laptop. Downside is it's a fucking brick so it's not very portable but that's fine for me. Amazon still sells them for damn near full price I bought mine for so it must still be pretty decent.

Lenovo w530

It just werks

I wanna get a 2 in 1 but I'm so lost as to what I should get. I want it for school this upcoming fall. I want the tablet feature pretty bad too. I kinda like the surface book. Opinions?

probably going to get a surface pro 4 soon, any opinions on it?

>Laptop
Sager NP8677
>Use
Gaymen

Why are you asking about a tablet in a laptop thread?

Because it is a 2 in 1, it's just as much a laptop as it is a tablet

I have the original surface pro 128 gb had it sense launch and too cheap to upgrade. I like it. Wish it had more usb ports. The 4 looks nice but I don't want to spent that much on a tablet again because am poor fag, ill wait till the 6 comes out and buy the 4 then :P

No, it's a tablet with a keyboard accessory. Laptops have keyboards attached to them.

yeah i've got a friend who let me use his and its just what i want. glad people like it long term

nice troll xd

Asus x205ta. Great computer for daily tasks. Extremely cheap and reliant. 12 hour battery time and weights just one kilogram. My only problem is it's small keyboard, but makes up for the fact that the laptop is small af.

hp envy 17t = windows 8.1, research
asus f555l = windows 10, business
old hp something = side projects

My two current main laptops are my ThinkPad W500 and EliteBook 8440p

HP Elitebook 8560W
Use: work, uni, shitposting

Definitely recommended of you want a sturdy workhorse. Guess you could do some light gaming if you wanted. Never bothered to try. Not recommended if you want something light and easily portable (weighs ~3.3kg and is not exactly small). Note however that my model is ~5years old. No reason to upgrade.

Ideapad Y700 for everything.
>tfw I'm a poorfag without a home
>tfw renting so I don't have a home to pursue hobbies

I'm planning to get the T430. Any of you have experiences with it?

X220t
Firstly, Art/drawing mostly
Secondly, computer to do general computing on the go

Dell Inspiron 15 5000

I mostly use it for work, shitpost, and gamez.

Does the flimsy screen annoy you?

ThinkPad W541. It's my daily driver now, so I use it for everything from web browsing to my engineering work to hobbies (programming, video editing).

Hp g6-2238tx:
i7 3632qm (4c8t)(2.2ghz base, 3.1ghz turbo) 8gb ram, 750gb 5400rpm hdd(soon 256gb ssd), hd 7670m 1gbddr3. Used for browsing/ backup note taking and light games.
Hp dv6:

Hp compaq (first laptop):
2ghz celeron (1c1t), 2gb ram, 120gb hdd, windows xp (used to be used for browsing etc. Sits in cupboard as emergency computer)
Surface pro 3:
i5 4xxx series 0.75 ghz min,1.9ghz base, ~2.8 ghz turbo but throttles quickly, 8gb ram, 256gb ssd, 2160x1440 panel. Used for primary note taking at uni and browsing/watching netflix/youtube.
Acer aspire 5520g:
Was a great laptop when it worked
2.2 ghz amd turion, 4gb ram, 250gb hdd, nvidia 8600m gs (troubled chipset that nvidia knew of, lots of cases of gpu frying/needing to be reconnected to motherboard) still in cupboard, unsure if gpu is totally dead or simply detached.

MacBook air 13" 2015.
Mostly for programming.

Looks comfy

so comfy and cute

if not for the shitty screen it would be on the top 10 list

monstrous and savage

i was gonna the ask the same question as the other user -- does the lack of the screen lock make things irritating

Thinkpad E540
Sup Forums says edge series are shite

Works well for me and comfy as hell
Used for programming, retro games,
Dual booted ubuntu/W7

Lenovo Thinkpad E560
Use it for programming, some games, university stuff.
Good battery life and performance.

If it's used for shiposting and doesn't leave your bed why do you need those specs?

It's very comfy. The vagina clit isn't so bad after a few hours.

>1366x768

HP Pavilion TouchSmart Sleekbook
Use it for everything.

Just bought a x260 and its coming this morning. Got it because I like my old thinkpads but massive battery life is something I can use. Supposed to be 10+ hours off a single 6 cell battery will report back when I know for sure.

Well done
Dear Diary, today I learned that resolution schnooks can identify numbers

I use an old HP 635 that I opened up and upgraded. Now it has an AMD Phenom II quad-core cpu @2.2 ghz instead of the previous dual-core @1.8ghz, a solid state drive, and 4gb RAM. Could still add up to 8gb of RAM but it's not really a concern of mine.

I use it to code primarily. For some reason I prefer coding on a laptop than on a full keyboard. All my gayming and files are on my desktop.

Also put ElementaryOS on it for another breath of life (and it's pretty imo), and installed PowerTOP and other battery saving tools to make the old battery last ~3 hours from full charge (assuming moderate use).

The only reason I would care to upgrade is the weight, otherwise this is all anyone really needs if they're not gaming.

I've been looking at latitudes, what is wrong with it?

I just got a new W540 quad core. It was a distributor refurb but it appears it was never out of the box. It was priced ~$750 but I traded some engineering hours for it. It's sufficient for what I use it for which is managing VMware and prototyping VMs. I also do some light browsing. My desktop tops out at 24gigs of mem while my laptop has 32. My desktop is a 980x monster so there's not much it doesn't do fast if I need it done fast. Everything else is done on the laptop.

had a old dell studio 1749 that was my very first laptop and it died in my arms today

:(

Using a shit inspiron 3541 but its a fucking turd

ThinkPad X220 with an i7-2640M and 16GB RAM.

Actually not as flimsy as you'd think. I can pick the entire thing by just the display and rotate and shake it without it turning.
I honestly thought it have to change the way I used a laptop, but if you don't intentionally rotate it, it feels like any other hinge, really.
Nah, it'd be nice if there was one, but it's pretty much like any other laptop without it

As seen here, holding it with one hand, partially rotated without it continuing to move though it's weight should cause it to continue to rotate.
What I'm trying to say is, the hinge is really stiff in all directions, but not impossible to accidentally rotate. Just not as easy as you'd think.

Just ordered the ThinkPad P50 (with the Intel Xeon E3-1505M v5) probably never fully utilize the computer but it's perfect !

17.3" Vortex Series Laptop, 4GHz i7, 64GB RAM, 2 x GeForce GTX 980 (8GB), SoundBlaster X-Fi MB, Logitech HD 1080p Webcam C930e, Gigabit LAN & Killer Wireless-AC + Bluetooth 4.1, 960GB HyperX Savage SSD, Windows XP

>Not wanting to shitpost at 1000fps

l460P yeah I also want that one.

I own this. This is my dorm and uni machine as well. I love it.

Asus k501ux (european version?)

ipon.hu/webshop/product/asus_k501ux_dm165d_szurke/1374562

I currently use a Acer Chromebook 11.
I use it for web surfing and work stuff.

Probably something decent, Quadcore CPU, last gen GPU, SSD and a IPS display. Saw some models on a pc store nearby around 500$~ or so.

Laptops are kinda deprecated, unless you're a student and you need the mobility. Otherwise, they're kinda useless.

Don't buy a gaming laptop for college you cuck.

Buy a ThinkPad, spend the rest of your cash hanging out with friends.

I personally would opt for the i5, they don't have the best running Temps.

I'm not trolling you moron, the SP4 is a tablet.

2012 rMbp I got for 250$.
Shitposting, light swift and Python, music

>friends
nm

recommend a laptop for around £500 Sup Forums
Needs a decent screen and keyboard because it will be for work, trackpad and battery life would be a plus

no thinkpad memes though
