They cost fucking nothing for the specs you get.
They're durable.
They're extremely user serviceable
Older ones can be used as weapons

Pick up a T410 for like 100$ and you have a pretty standard shitpost machine

Grab a T42 for 40$ and you have an extremely weak shitposting machine, but one that can be used to kill family members and/or muggers

Nice W701.

er, W700

They're cheap making them ideal for the people on Sup Forums who are poor NEETs

They're inferior to latitudes and elitebooks. They're just a meme.

Libreboot

Nice meme brah xD

If they're old and used they're a good deal as long as you don't work with modern tech or limit yourself to light coding.

The new ones are dank as hell but the screens are to pathetically bad it's embarrassing.

I've owned an Elitebook, a T420, an X220, a T450s and I can confirm the best laptops for most use cases are Macbooks.

They're good, cheap, and reliable.

Depending on what you need they can be pretty good. Old ones are perfect if you need a cheap laptop that will last a while. Newer ones can be a good idea if durability is more important than a good screen. If you want linux on your laptop they are also a good idea. I have a 11e yoga, core m variant. Great thing, slim for a thinkpad, durable, decent keyboard, display folds back for tablet like use, has a wacom digitizer and runs linux.

If you want thinness, a modern design or a good screen thinkpads are a bad idea.

I like the design, if it works then it's goos to me. Reminds me of those hacker movies like The Net and laptops in cop cars

Get an X220 and find out OP.

>white
>black kid
Dude, dude forget about the Thinkpad its time you need to start asking questions...

>what are black women?

You mean monkeys?

the man's into legal bestiality, so what

Why exactly?

t. faggot

Is that his wife's son?

:^)

You mean monkeys?

overrated laptops with a shit screen and battery life

theres a reason why they're cheap

WHY is his child a nigger???

>no physical touchpad buttons
This is cancer

they are shit, I just go hp elitebook and its way way better than the overpriced shit of x220

...

A thinkpad user is alpha enough to smash that mf black pussy

What kind of fucking idiot would buy from Lenovo after at least two major scandals? Oh, right, Sup Forums

>Redpill me
>>>/global/rules/2

I am not really versed in reddit like you
but what makes it a reddit phrase that triggered you?

>theres a reason why they're cheap

yeah they were leased by the thousands to large corporations and after a few years of light use they were returned, refurbished en masse, and sold on ebay for cheap as dicks.

was hard to get used to comming from a x61, but its ok.

>latitudes
Which ones? Let's say in the X220 price/size range.

>elitebooks
>HP laptops

>pic
What did he mean by this?

Only buy them if you want to look like a neckbeard, bonus points if you put stickers all over.

Otherwise , just buy a modern cheap laptop.

Love mine. Xeon CPU Quadro GPU. Best Laptop I've had by far. Let's see if I can make it last longer than my MBP.

If you get a newer model make sure you update the BIOS so when you try to restore it'll work right and you wont spend hours trying to figure out whats wrong.

Hahahha look at that fucking cuck.

>Older ones can be used as weapons
I clocked a hoodrat with my T460 a few weeks ago. He stayed down and the laptop sustained no damage.

>he fell for the ThinkPad meme
Your virginity is well protected now.

>They cost fucking nothing for the specs you get.
Blatantly false if we are talking about buying new. Used, yes, but every used laptop is cheap (disregard Macs, exception to the rule).
The rest is true though. And yes, I am also a Thinkpad fan.

T420 is better

EPIC MEME XD ^^

The keyboard/trackpoint on Elitebooks are utter shit.

well as you can see they're from educated white men, and other laptops are for niggers.

P70?

>The new ones are dank as hell but the screens are to pathetically bad it's embarrassing.
What are you talking about, I have the T460 with the IPS screen and it looks wonderful.

It's his wife's son, not his.

Most people shill T420/T430 and below. Similarly for the X series. Good luck getting those new.

The screen looks like shit.

is it possible to get an x220 in 1920x800?

oh wow. I hope she was a paid by fox to dress up like that

E6220 or 6230 probably

Whats the best model I should look out for under $200? Are there good batteries available that will last 8+ hours or do they all suck?

corporate resellers get rid of massive inventory in lots

great deals when you catch it right

>Manly tears and his x220 (and his wife's son)

The IBM Thinkpads were very good but are now obsolescent.
The Lenovo Thinkpads have declined in excellence since IBM stopped doing the QC.
The specs are inferior to most other quality laptops and the production values have declined markedly.
But the myth lives on.

I've always been a Thinkpad guy but the screens really are ass these days. Have a used Elitebook on order to replace my T420.

the earth is becoming a parody of itself, they don't need to pay clowns any more man. there's an array of clowns ready and willing to juggle in front of millions for free.

looks like jungle fever, a cuck regardless

There's nothing special about them. Other than their keyboards. Durability meme was in the 90s when IBM still made them, but even then the later IBM models were just regular. Everything was made better a while back, I have an old Median Microstar laptop which is solid as fuck still.

Modern day ThinkPads aren't any more durable than any other laptop. They're not made with low tolerances, the rollcage shit is inferior to a full metal exoskeleton (MacBooks used to have magnesium rollcages before they went to unibody). They're kinda upgradable, which is alright. Upgradable laptops are a thing of the past though. You don't need to upgrade your RAM several times, maximum 3 times in the lifetime of the machine, it makes no sense to make design compromises for such a small case when you can just not be cheap and buy what you think you'll need for the future.

ThinkPads have been employed in large numbers by businesses and so when they're recycled they can be picked up for cheap, that's the real reason why this board likes them, they're abundant in supply and replacements and cheap.

FUCKING HIDEOUS

Not him but I think it looks much nicer than an x220.

>no trackpoint

No trackpoint, cheap looking rounded corners, shitty keyboard

I genuinely don't understand what anyone could see in this laptop compared to the thinkpad

> 2016

> Pathetic, self hating, white male beta cuc ks are making the Chinese men look like fucking Alpha males

The era of Asian dominance is coming...

Because it's still better in almost every single way

They just have really good keyboards, they're built well, and they usually have solid Linux support. That's it. For a lot of people, including me, that was enough.

An alternative is the Latitude E4300 that can be bought for

I've used a W541 and it was fucking horrendous and was RMAd and replaced with a P70 which is an overpriced pile of shit.
